Sierra Nevada Glissade Golden Bock
Clear, light golden liquid with a white rocky head. The aroma is mostly yeasty malt and noble hops. The flavor is bittersweet with a bit too much malt sweetness and a somewhat astringent hop bitterness. It's an ok beer but the noble hops are a bit much for me. I love Sierra Nevada but their lagers haven't wowed me yet. The malt flavors get a bit cloying and I prefer their normal American hop dominant beers. Still, not bad for the style. Update: 4/1/10 - Enjoying this beer a lot better now. The hops don't seem quite as prominent this time. The beer has a nicer balance than I remember. It's got a nice lager flavor.
