Oct 22, 2000 I have problem deciding which seasonal style I like best, Maibocks, and bocks, or the Oktoberfest Marzen style beers of the Fall. Big malty nose and a caramel hop taste and bite, fairly highy ABV and the strong flavors makes this a favorite. Once again, It goes quick, so I always call to see if they have it.

May 9, 2001 Had two 1/2 liter glasses of this wonderful brew on draught at their Washington, DC location. Deep golden color, soft carbonation, with a nice, creamy white head. The nose was malty with a touch of DMS and some peppery hints of alcohol. The palate was firm, with some great pale malt flavors. Slightly sweet with a nice hefty body. This beer finished clean and malty, with a soothing alcohol burn. Excellent domestic example of a classic German beer style.

May 6, 2002 Had one of these on tap with my lunch salad at the Brewpub in Cowlumbus today. This brew pours a hazy ruddy copper. The average sized fluffy and creamy white head is mostly lasting with fair lacing. The spicy and fruity nose is very pleasant with flowery hops, caramel and cereal malt, and earthy yeast. The flavor starts spicy sweet with a flowery middle, and a very sweet caramel malt finish with a tinge of bitterness. The smooth, creamy palate is very nice with a medium body, soft carbonation and a clean finish that is somewhat chalky.

May 1, 2007 Pours a slightly hazed, yellow/orange nectar w/ good residual lacing. A white blanket just sat there forever. Nice! Aroma of sweet medicinal tropical nectar. Full nectar w/ silky, creamy residual effers. A very malty brew akin to Hansens fruit nectar. Slightly medicinal, banana, kiwi, peach nectar, slight clove spice. Theres a slightly balancing peach pit bittering component. The finish is long, semi sweet and thickly malted. An interesting brew. They told me was 9% abv at the brewery.

Apr 12, 2008 Hate to give such a short review to such a great beer but I lost my notes and only have my numerical ratings to go by. Had a draft at the source and can officially say, "Wow!" A great beer and the best offering that I have had from the peeps at GB. Keep it right up.
