Shmaltz Brewing Releases Bock Bock, Aged In Jim Beam, Heaven Hill & Buffalo Trace Barrels

"Barrel-aged Bock Bock gains its toasty, rich malt body and nutty caramel flavor from distinctive European malts, such as Vienna, Munich and Crystal, to make a traditional bock base," said Shmaltz Brewing Company’s Lead Brewer Richie Saunders. "This malty libation was aged for many months in hand selected Jim Beam, Heaven Hill, and Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels. Bock Bock pours a robust copper with a creamy off-white head. The richness of the European malts is softened by the delicate mix of bourbon, and gives an aromatic sturdiness balanced by light vanilla notes, charred wood, warm caramel, toffee and bourbon soaked raisin and dark fruits on the finish. Bock Bock is craft beer comfort for a new generation!"
