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.
O.G. 15.5

12 oz bottle. Deep golden with a fast fading white head. Sweet pale malt aroma, a bit of stone fruite (apricot) as well. Fairly clean, but the mouthfeel is a bit oil and slick. Sweet pale malt, bread and a bit of lingering breadiness. Faint noble hops. OK, but a bit lacking in character. As it warms, some nice toasty notes come forward.

It gets props because it is cheap compared to similar tasting beers. I was impressed ,after reading the reviews on here i wasn’t expecting much . It is sweet and tastes great. Reminds me of Anchor’s Old Fog Horn.

Bottle. Pours an almost opaque cloudy amber. Aroma was honey and vanilla. Taste was full of sweet honey. Palate was a little grainy and bubbly.

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.

Refreshing citrus aroma, just like a blue moon only with hops. Orange color with a cloudy body. Orange juice with a spice is a good way to describe the taste of this brew. Pretty decent, looking forward to having another.
