COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Vår Majbock är en hyllning till den starka öltraditionen i byn Einbeck. 1 maj varje år avslutades bryggarsäsongen med en festival där byns 700 bryggare gjorde upp om turordningen för att få använda den gemensamma bryggpannan. Vår Majbock bryggs som traditionen bjuder på malt, humle, jäst och vatten. Sedan får den jäsa kallt och lagras länge. Resultatet är en stark öl med utpräglat maltig karaktär av högsta kvalitet.

True to type, dark gold, sweet and sour. Nothing to distinguish this from a standard German MAibock. Nice ripe fruit in the finish.

hirigalzkar (1320) - ENSKEDE, SWEDEN - JUN 3, 2010
Bottle. The liquid is orange and looks thicker than it really is. Nice long lasting little white head. Clean malty aroma, sweet and bready. The taste is also based on a clean malt profile. Notes of honey and rotten vegtables. Small smokiness in the aftertaste. Well balanced. Smooth. A classic example of a bock beer.

gyllenbock (1608) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - JUN 1, 2010
Bottle. Amber with a slightly tan head. Quite sweet aroma with bread and butter scotch. Sweet taste with bread, malt, caramel and some fruit. Low bitterness, ok beer but a little to much taste of bread for my liking.

Berikad med smaker, välförvaltad. En helhet som ger ett enhetligt intryck. Bocköl gör en sällan besviken.
