Artois Bock

Artois Bock was a speciality beer, brewed by InBev, and first sold in May 2005 based upon a recipe dating from 1892.[1] It was brewed in a "Bock" style and was 6.2% ABV.[1]

The beer was phased out following the launch of the new Eiken Artois in 2008, in a revamp of the "Artois Family" brand to try to stem falling sales.[1][2] Eiken Artois was itself withdrawn from sale later in 2008.[3]
