Logs for this tasting

Sweet and bready like you'd expect from an amber bock, but with a lot more fruity overtones and bitterness from the hops. The flavor is surprisingly evocative of pineapple and passionfruit, which is impressive, but I wonder if using actual fruit instead of relying on hop-yeast magic would have helped make for a more adjustable flavor balance. As it is, it seems like they sacrificed something to get the effect they wanted.
