Commercial Description:
Honey Double Mai Bock is a pale form of bock being a rich medium gold. Compared to a traditional bock it tends to be less malty and more obviously alcoholic. This is our traditional spring beer debuting every year on the Thursday before Palm Sunday. Bock is German for goat and the beer is named for that traditional Easter feast of roast goat. We use German Pilsner & Canadian Honey Malt and 60 pounds of New Jersey Clover Honey. It is hopped with German Magnum & Tettnanger. This is a powerful beer & seller so get ELIMINATED if you dare.

Strong brew, 10% ABV for the record. Very clear beer, not a very pleasing taste. However it gets the job done hence the name. It’s not an easy drink but beers named the eliminator probably shouldn’t be easy on your palate

Draft at the brewery. Pours a golden ale with a white head. Aroma is spring fruit, citrus, banan, some chocolate malt. Etoh is very present in this beer that dries your palate out as you finish.

6.2.06 Tap at the brewpub. Decent. Kind of heavy for a doppelbock. More like a syrupy dubbel or triple than a doppel.

Smells, looks, and tastes like a tripel. Sweet. I think it is underrated here. Honey.

orange/light copper with a small head and light carbonation. Aroma, sweet malt, chocolate hints, some banana. Taste: slightly bitter upfront with sweet malt, light chocolate notes, a slightly hoppy finish.

on tap at the brewpub. golden yellow color, whitish head. aroma is a little banana, a little alcohol, and some yeast. smells a bit like a tripel. flavor is yeasty, banana, and watery, yet has dry alcohol flavor too. go figure.

ugh, nothing special. what’s with the my-(expletive)-is-bigger-than-yours terminology for this super bock? apparently heartland uses it too. Sweet and bitter, like a beer version of sweet and sour mix. And gets the same reviews: eh... better than Coors Light?

Tap at the brewery. Clear yellow orange, no head. Lacks carbonation. Malty aroma, with some alcohol notes. Clean. Thin and watery palate, with a big malt profile, and an alcohol bite that is not too dominating. Decent.
