Poretti Bock

---

While the autumn
beers from
Japanese brewers
offer a heavier
body and more
flavor, the best
heavy lagers are
German Bocks.
But this Bock
from Italy is in
the same class,
but costs only
Y150 while
supplies last.
Italy is not
known for its
beer, but there
has long been a
beer tradition
in the north.
The Poretti
Brewery dates
back to 1877,
and produces
mostly German
styles. This
Chiara (pale)
Bock is a bright
medium yellow,
with a dense
white head. The
rich fruity
aroma is spiked
with alcohol, no
surprise for a
6.5% brew. Rich
fruity tones
carry over into
the heavy malty
body, backed by
a nice herbal
bitterness from
the hops.
