maeib (6398) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - SEP 20, 2006
Bottled - LCRBM2 - A golden coloured beer with a very sweet nose with buttery overtones. The taste is malty and slighhtly sweet. Bready notes. A reasonable drink as a beer but very disappointing as a Bock.

jbrus (4989) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - SEP 10, 2006
Bottled, LCRBM. Malty aroma with dough and apple. Golden color, off-whiteh ead, fair lace. Flavor is straightforward and not much more than apple and alcohol besides sweetness and some bitterness.

skortila (4035) - Baarn, NETHERLANDS - SEP 10, 2006
[2nd Low Countries RateBeer meeting] Bit skunky hoppy and malty aroma. Clear, golden coloured with a white head. Taste is sweet, hoppy. Bit sticky mouthfeel.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUL 1, 2006
A yellow beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of both straw and malt, while the flavor is plainly sweet malty, leading to an alcoholic ind. A very simple bock - too simple for my liking.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUN 26, 2006
(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a clear pilsener golden with a white head. Hoppy aroma. Medium-bodied and malty with both a solid bitterness and alcohol in the finish. Rather classical Maibock. 250606

EithCubes (3053) - GERMANY - JUN 6, 2006
Bottle. Deep golden / light amber pour, bubbly but ephemeral white head. Smells sweet and malty, slightly vinous/grapey and herby. Unusual taste, can definitely detect the jeverian influence. Somewhere between a weak bock and a weak Jever pils, having discarded the best qualities of both. Strong alcohol, though it’s reasonably well-hidden. The bock fruitiness is subdued in favor of light herbiness. Very soft mouthfeel, long and warming final bitterness. Thanks pivnizub!

jonas (4506) - Garching b. München, GERMANY - MAY 9, 2006
Bottle from MoritzF
It has the Jever hop aroma allright, under that there is a far more fat malt smell than in the regular pilsner. Amber, fine pearling carbonation, low head. Chewy malt body, alcohol detectable, offset by dry bittering hops. Ramps down pretty quickly, bitter finish with a bit less staying power than with the pils.
