3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
12oz bottle. Poured a clear medium orange color. Head was off white and reduced to a thin film after a minute or so. Aroma was of biscuity malt, yeasty bread dough, and green peppercorn. Slightly sweet up front. Medium bodied with a softer mouth feel than I had anticipated. Tasted of biscuity malt, subdued toffee, and grassy hops. I also got an occasional spicy cinnamon-ish note. Mild to moderate bitterness emerged at the end. Pretty good stuff.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours redish/amber with a thin weak head. A small amount of lacing is visible. The flavor is a little sweet for my liking but not too bad.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Clear copper colored body with a thin white layered head. Impressive lacing. Plenty of biscuit like malts, combined with spices and some light fruit. Very decent respectable brew within its style. Maibocks are a nice change of pace and welcomed in the spring time. This one does not disappoint.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours gold with a small frothy head. Smells doughy with plenty of malts. Little boozy in the nose as well. Sweet malt character in the flavor but balanced by a little spiciness and bite of alcohol. Finishes a little dry with a small presence of hops. Pretty good beer to pair with a proper dinner.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pour is clear light amber with a thin off white head...smell is sweet and toasty with a strange apricot thing....taste is sweet with tons of apricot....sticky sweet...this has to be the wrong beer being sold out of this tap...
