Commercial Description:
Heller Hound Bock is a crisp and malty Maibock, brewed with a special combination of Vienna and Munich malts. With a rich mouth feel and a subtle hop finish this is the perfect brew for toasting the sun's return.

Big head with a nice malt aroma, I found it to be a clean and sweet but not overpoweringly so. Hop Heads beware

deep amber, slightly viscous look and mouthfeel. Enjoyable, malty and drinkable. Well balanced and and satisfying throughout. Great artwork on this one.

Dark gold with a good starting head and lasting thick skiff. Aroma of long grass, straw and alcohol. A bit of alcohol in the flavour. Thick body almost syrupy. Has a chewy dry grass flavour. Reminds me of some Oktoberfests with a juicier flavour. Has an interesting juice pocket aftertaste effect.

Small white head, mediocre retention, slight lacing. Clear gold color. Sweet malt, honey nose. Medium body sorta creamy. Sweet malt and grainy flavors. Finish is medium sweet. A fair interpretation of a Maibock.

Bottle: Golden hue with small but lasting head and very good lace. The aroma has notes of lmeongrass, honeycomb, caramelized malts, floral hops, and dusty yeast esters. The taste starts crisp and mildly bitter with a good dose of malt background. Some citrus and a noticebale biscuity presence. The finish has lingering bitterness. The feel is crisp and lively initially but then turn more metallic and chalky as you drink it. A good offering and worthy of a try.

Floral hops over nutty, toasty malts in the aroma. Lightly oily-hazy deep golden body topped by a decent white head that recedes to a large bubbled but lasting partial cover and ring with some lace. Nutty and toasty malts with grassy and floral hops . Fresh tasting with fruity esters that evoke peaches and pears. Bitterness lingers but some graininess is notable - in the aftertaste especially. Medium body with soft bubbled carbonation. Bottle sampled with Oakes in June 2007.

This one is abundantly carbonated, and has a bready, grainy, heavy malt aroma with some definite flowers and grass thrown in; the flavor is alcoholic and malty up front, with a quick citric tart rear end; the palate is prickly, creamy, and acidic. Not real complex or smooth; I’d pass on this one next time most likely
