Bald Eagle Bock

Bald Eagle Bock Wine Details
Price:

Description: Our Bock is brewed with large amounts of caramel 150L and pale malt. Also added are imported German Munich 9L, Vienna malt and chocolate malts that create a deep, rich mahogany color. Hopping with Saaz and German Hallertau balance out the pronounced sweetness and create a strong beer with a clean finish.

Varietal Definition
Bock:
Bocks are a specific type of strong lager historically associated with Germany and specifically the town of Einbeck. These beers range in color from pale to deep amber tones, and feature a decided sweetness on the palate. Bock styles are an exposition of malty sweetness that is classically associated with the character and flavor of Bavarian malt. Alcohol levels are quite potent, typically 5-6% ABV. Hop aromas are generally low though hop bitterness can serve as a balancing factor against the malt sweetness.
