More information about Prince Carl Josefi Bock
Josefi-Bock is an extremely popular seasonal specialty, especially in Bavaria Every year, the intense bock beer is brewed in winter so that it can be served in time for the feast day of Saint Joseph in March Saint Joseph is not only the foster father of Jesus but also the patron saint of brewers He holds his guardian hand over kettles and brewing pots, ensures the success of the beer and protects the brewers
To thank him, many breweries brew a very special Josefi-Bock every year, which is tapped on 19 March As this feast day is in the middle of Lent, the Josefi-Bock is particularly nutritious and rich With a strong 7.5% alcohol content and an intense malt character, the Josefi-Bock from the Ellinger Schlossbrauerei is no exception The dark beer scores with spicy honey notes, caramel flavor and an extra portion of malt
The bock in honor of Saint Joseph flows into the glass in an opal chestnut brown and has a delicate, copper-red shimmer The beer smells seductively of dark caramel, roasted nuts and creamy honey The first sip reveals a powerful body with warming alcohol notes, well integrated into the flavor profile The taste of the bock delights with notes of toasted malt, oven-fresh bread, dried berries, maple syrup and nuts The hops contribute a fine tartness and a playful citrus note
The perfect treat for the austere fasting period!
