Gluek Honey Bock
January 7th thru January 13th
Brewer's Description
This special bock beer is handcrafted with the combination of special toasted malts and the finest hops and with a touch of honey is very well balanced. Honey is evident in the aroma, (yet not overpowering), but harmonious with the Bock's malty and bready aromas. The Gluek Honey Bock appearance is a light reddish amber to copper color, bright clarity, off-white persistent head. This bock has a medium/light to medium body, with a gentle creaminess, moderate carbonation, with a smooth moderately crisp finish and has a bit of alcohol warming.

There is just nothing to really distinguish this brew other then the can. It has very little flavour, it’s a bit too sweet (but the name says honey beer so thats expected) and other then that it’s quite plain. This is the kinda beer I’d buy for a century club and not feel bad if it didn’t all stay down by the end. And it has the advantage of being bland enough that your not especially beer fond girlfriend might be willing to slam a glass or two as well.
I sampled this one 5 mins after getting home from work and it felt decently refreshing and left me in a good mood, so it’s getting a 3 star rating for doing what beer does best.
