Name – Sierra Nevada Glissade Golden Bock
Country – United States
Type – Maibock

Appearance – Pours a crystal clear light orange color with an almost finger wide white head that disappears very quickly.

Smell – The nose is very faint.  Some malts with a bit of earthy hops.

Taste – Sweet, bready malts pretty much through out and a hint of hops in there.  Very crisp finish.

It’s great seeing Sierra Nevada doing new things.  I know some geeks felt they just got so comfortable with what they had we weren’t going to see new things from them.  But they are definitely doing a good job with the new things.  Nothing crazy here on Glissade but it is a very nice and refreshing bock.  This could be a summer seasonal as well as a spring one.

Overall Grade – B
