Bottle. Pours clear orange with a lacy off-white head. Aroma of hay, toffee, flowers and mint? Medium body and active carbonation. Sweet caramel-coated taste with a crisp finish.

Jul 20, 2008 Golden orange colored, moderate head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is heavy on grain, with some alcohol and sugaryness. Light caramel and hops as well. Medium bodied, grainy, rough finish with some alcohol. Sloppy IMO.

Jun 16, 2008 12 ounce bottle from By The Bottle in Vancouver, WA--Poured a thin orange-amber hue with a medium white head. Wheaty nose with some grainy malty toffee. Flat out middle of the road malts in the finish. Flavor was mild and kind of boring. Still not too bad.

Jun 2, 2008 Maibocks are probably my least favorite of bocks. Bottle... Poured the tone of cider with a thin head. Aroma is slightly funky, like sugared malt mixed with rotten fruit. Flavors are better though, with refreshing hops and fruity esters and malt that are reminiscent of a barley wine, but way more mellowed out of course. Kind of a Tangy citrus finish.

May 6, 2008 Draft. Clear orange-amber, dense orange-tinted head leaving early lace. Fruity toffee aroma. Sweet malt (marzipan) and light fruit (apricot) in perfect balance, very flavourful. Moderate bitter finish. Very good.
