"text": "National Bock Beer Day celebrates bock, a strong German lager known for its rich malt character, sweetness, and toasted flavors. Observed annually on March 20, the day invites beer enthusiasts to explore the style and its variations, including the lighter maibock, the stronger doppelbock, and the concentrated eisbock. Traditional bocks can range from amber to dark brown or ruby red and usually have little hop aroma. MoreBeer’s overview of the style describes a traditional bock as having a malt aroma reminiscent of fresh bread crust and toffee.\nThe beer’s history is associated with Einbeck in Germany, where it was originally brewed as a top-fermented ale. When the style reached Munich in the seventeenth century, Bavarians’ pronunciation of “Einbeck” was said to contribute to the name bock—which means “billy goat” in German. That connection helps explain why goats often appear on bock beer labels. Untappd’s history of bock notes that traditional bocks are malt-forward, often featuring Munich or Vienna malt, with sweetness balanced by toasted-nut notes.",

"text": "Celebrate by trying a traditional bock or comparing several varieties, such as maibock, doppelbock, and eisbock. Take time to notice the beer’s color, malt aroma, sweetness, and toasted flavors, or learn more about its German history. If you choose to drink, enjoy it responsibly—and you can always celebrate by studying the style without drinking.",
