<i>&#40;bottle&#41;</i> Clear amber to copper colour with a foamy and slightly off-white medium head. Sweet toasted malty nose with herbal hoppy notes. Toasty and rich malty taste, sweet flavour, medium body, smooth mouthfeel, hints of caramel and honey; malty and herbal hoppy finish with well-integrated alcohol. Sweet but aromatic and decent Bock.

500mL flip top at Spuyten Duyvil poured into an imperial pint glass with a hazy dark straw color. Aroma is sweat cereal and a German berry-like lager yeastiness. Taste is sweet cereal with that lagered german fruiitness. Just a fine German beer.

16 ounce bottle purchased at BevMo in Natomas, CA. Aroma is musty and metallic with some sweet notes as well. Not overly aromatic or impressive. Transparent dark golden body with a medium, frothy, white head and fair lacing. Some sweet, chewy malty flavors are present to start. A bit of an oily body is present. Light metallic notes with also a little bit of noble hop spiciness to finish. Has a bit of banana-ish ester flavor, too. I’m not a huge maibock fan, but I suppose this is par.

This is an outstanding maibock. It is light amber with a very large light tan head slowly shrinking to a thin head with some decent lace. The smell is rich bread, crust, hints of hay, pine, honey, raisins, and herbs. The tatse is full-bodied, complex, and interesting, yet smooth and highly drinkable. It has honey, raisins, grapes, lightly toastyed bread, herbs, grass, a hint of pine, some wine and a spritzy-juicy quality, smooth, with great balance.

Bottle from BevMo, La Mesa. Medium golden in color. Moderately sized head. Sweet malty aroma with a bit of graininess. Sweet flavors up front with a little bit of bready maltiness and some grains. Light hop bitterness in the finish.
