O’Fallon Goat’s Breath Bock Ale

O’Fallon Goat’s Breath Bock Ale Wine Details
Price:

Description: We brew this smooth, dark and rich tasting beer with our house Kolsch yeast to create a “bock ale.” Conventional German bock beers are brewed with lager yeast, but our passion is great beer...and we love to defy tradition every now and then.

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.
