Müller (Debring) Bock from gravity dispense

Müller (Debringer) Bockbier is one of Franconia's best with a balanced palate featuring floral hops and fruity malt. The lingering semi-dry, semi-bitter finish is moreish. This version from gravity dispense at Der Pelikan Best of Bock was even softer.

Griess Keller Bock

Griess Keller Bock is a hop forward richly malty brew more suited to sipping than a raucous Bockbieranstich. While not a traditional Franconian Bock, it outshines many that safely hide in the confines of the bland Hallerbock one often finds.

Forstquell-Bock

Forst-Quell Bock is another great beer from the brewery, coming out on Ash Wednesday at their annual Bockanstich. It's full of dried fruit and the lingering finish is quite dry for its strength and dangerously moreish.
