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.

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.

Rett says the perfect morning beer
January 6th, 2008
This morning I found myself doing something out of the ordinary because of a WordPress technical limitation. The week 2 beer page will only show up if there is a post associated with it. So what’s a not-too-techy guy like me going to do? Certainly not hack the code in WordPress, but rather hack the code to my morning routine by adding a line that says “if it’s Monday morning, insert Gluek Honey Bock into mouth and write a review.”
So please keep in mind that my mouth is coated with a layer of morning breath and dried drool (yuck!) as I review this brew. Basically, it tastes more like a miller lite than I would like. There is a faint hint of honey flavor, but it’s very light tasting, not what I would expect from a honey bock. With that said, it’s very drinkable, especially in the early hours of the day. If only I were still in college, this would be the perfect “wake up at 7am hungover and drink before a Minnesota Gopher game” kind of beer.

I think we also should share the per beer price on the main page of these… because this beer is super-cheap, and that is kind of a factor, isn’t it? I mean, my expectations for a 50 cent beer are lower than a $2 beer.
