Bottle: Deep golden, clear, quite stable mid-sized fluffy head; distinctive malty-bisquity nose with a good dash of "woody" hops; soligd sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; chewy, almost vinous, lingering sweet and hoppy finish. Very pleasant, very decent Heller Bock.........

(Bottle) Pours golden. Fantastic aroma and flavour of caramel and bready malt alongside undertones of grassy and herbal, low alpha hops in the. Some alcohol. The mouthfeel is clean. Lingering maltiness. Medium bodied.

Süßlicher Antrunk, etwas getreidig, hellmalzig. Das Bier ist wenig würzig, die Süße scheint gehemmt, was durch die Lagerung kommen könnte. Dies deutet darauf hin, dass da Bier frisch süßer und somit unreifer schmeckt. Wenig herb, etwas honigartig klebrig, leicht muffig. Wenig würziger werdend. Monotoner Maibock, der in einer frischeren Version (ich trinke meinen zum Ende des MHD) vermutlich anders, nicht aber unbedingt besser schemcken würde. 11/9/8/7/7/8

Bottled. An amber beer wiht a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and caramel, while the flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, alcohol, and metal.

(bottle) Clear, deep golden colour with a big and off-white foamy head. Sweet and slightly cara-malty aroma with biscuits and moderate herbal hoppy notes. Sweet and slightly bitter flavour, medium to full bodied with a soft and well-matured carbonation. Solid cara-malty base with notes of biscuits and bread, accompanied by herbal accents and a subtle almost vinous fruity note. Sweet malty finish with a rounded herbal hoppy bitterness. Surprisingly drinkable Bock by Eichbaum. Good (21.I.09).

[Bottled] Golden with a white head. Pretty sweet aroma with grassy, alcoholic notes. Dry mouthfeel with marcipan and apples.
