Who’s ready to get poked!?!?! Old Town Tavern is having their 6th annual Bock Poking. Bock Poking is a time honored late winter/early spring tradition that involves fire, metal, and Bock beer.
Never experienced a bock poking before? Stop down and see for yourself what it’s all about. Great times with great people and wonderful beer from Schell’s brewery!!
So, what exactly happens when a hot metal rod is plunged into the beer? As we all know, post fermentation, there are residual malt sugars which are leftover in the beer. The hot metal rod instantaneously caramelizes these complex sugars and brings out more concentrated malt character to the forefront. The beer develops a marshmallow-like toasted character and is pleasantly soft/creamy on the palate with a unique flavor experience.
We will have a representative from Jerome’s Distributing out on the patio ready to poke your Bock from Noon-4pm.
