Brouwerij 't IJ crafts this rye bock in Amsterdam, where founder Kasper Peterson established his experimental brewery in 1985. Roggebok merges the full, dark character of a traditional bock with the spicy, peppery dimension that rye brings to the beer.

The aroma reveals roasted grains with hints of coffee and dark fruit. On the palate, the full body takes centre stage, balanced by a mix of sweet malt notes and subtle bitterness. The finish is dry and clean, resisting the sweetness you might expect from a bock beer.
