For centuries, monks brewed strong bock beers to get them through Lent. Malt forward and always hearty, these beers are flavorful and fun to drink – and that’s why we’re putting our favorites on tap from March 2-9.
So, instead of laying off for Lent, let these beers and food specials keep you company as we wait for spring to – eventually – arrive.
We’re throwing in a few deals, along with all our favorite German beer and food. Get our Bavarian pretzel board and a sample flight of all five bocks for $20. And, get double points as a Dane Rewards member from 3-9 p.m. each day during Bock Week.

BOCKS ON PARADE
Along with four of our classic Dane bocks, we’re featuring an import that’s inspired more than a handful of our beers. Read on to learn more.
VELVET HAMMER BOCK
Smooth and rich, this malt-forward German lager delivers hints of caramel and chocolate. 7.3% ABV LEARN MORE
ÜBER BOCK
A medium-bodied lager that’s rich and complex. Über Bock is easy drinking but delivers a higher level of alcohol than many bocks. 10% ABV LEARN MORE
EIS ÜBER BOCK

MAIBOCK
This Maibock is made with light-colored malts, delivering a bronze-hued beer crafted to celebrate the arrival of spring. Honey aromas are at the forefront of this classic bock. 7.8% ABV LEARN MORE
KLOSTER ANDECHS
This import is a longstanding favorite of our head brewmaster and co-founder Rob LoBreglio. With semisweet chocolate and banana notes, Andechs is a doppelbock dunkel that’s inspired several Dane beers. 7.1% ABV LEARN MORE
