I really like sierra nevada's Pale Bock (when I can find it), so I'm trying to clone it or at least get close. I realize the OG and ABV are a bit high for the style, but SN's version is closer to this recipe. You guys have any comments? I have been looking for a clone recipe for this beer for a while but didnt find much. Ive only brewed 1 lager and Ive never brewed a bock, so this should be interesting!
