guzzler (77), AE, Germany Nov 4, 2002 Sweet aroma and lots of carbonation. Alcohol flavor is there but not too strong. Pretty good.
CanIHave4Beers (245), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Oct 13, 2008 Pours a very pale color with a thick fluffy white head. It looks like a good pilsner, however tastes quite differently. The beer has a defined sweet malt aroma of bread dough and a little bit of wet hops. The texture is delightful, very thick but creamy. The flavor is slightly more dry than sweet with a nice malt character. Glouglouburp (2113), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Oct 2, 2008 <b>In short: </b>A standard pale bock lager, average for the Maibock (unofficial) style.<br />
<b>How: </b>Bottle, 500ml swing-top, consumed fresh a few days after purchase<br />
<b>The look: </b>Clear golden body topped by a medium white head<br />
<b>In long: </b>Mostly typical classic Maibock flavours. Juicy citrusy bready and caramelized body. A bit doughy. Some cooked vegetables but not really bothersome. Boiled eggs (I get that from certain lagers, I’m the only one). Good mouthfeel. Nice thirst-quencher but overall a pretty standard offering for the genre. A little Maibock with nothing special. Notamünster Maibock.
SuperDave70 (929), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Sep 12, 2008 Pours a clear gold color with a foamy white head. Aroma is sweet light fruit and malt. Flavor is a bit better, with the fruit and malt sweetness, as well as a touch of hoppy spice. Medium mouthfeel. Nothing too extraordinary going on here, but a good all around brew. fonefan (5547), Ulfborg, Denmark Sep 3, 2008 <b>Bottle 50cl, sving top @ home.</b><br />Clear medium orange color with a average to large, frothy - creamy, good lacing, fully lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, fruity. Flavor is moderate to light heavy sweet and light bitter with a average to long duration, finish is light pepper - alcohol burn. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (230608) sneagrams3 (1464), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Aug 31, 2008 Tasted 8/3/08. 500ml swing top bottle. Hazy with a golden hue. Trace white head. Grainy nose with a touch sweet breads. Light to medium bodied with mild effervescence. Touch toasty with a slight hop presence. Crisp body with a touch tingle. Slight bitterness. Good palate roll and tasty. Caramel malts with an ever so slight cola and coffee undertone. Solid session brew. Good drinking.
