A new German beer only sweetens the deal, and if it's a double bock? Well, that's just icing on the cake. Double bocks are my favorite style, after all.

And I have to say, I really enjoyed it, and highly recommend it, too. Why, you should have a Wet Dream yourself, if you can. Get one, I mean, because they're not sold everywhere. What?
