Pours cloudy coper with a frothy off-white mostly diminishing head. Smells inviting, medium intensity, with caramel, hops, and spice. Medium intensity, body, and aftertaste. Round and creamy texture. Tastes sweet/sour and finishes with some bitterness and sweetness. Complex/well balanced quality. Appreciated

750ml. If this beer is indicitive of Maibock then this isn’t my style at all and I will stay away for a bit. From the first sip I regretted buying this. It seemed overcarbonated too - not tons of little bubbles but lots of big ones. The taste was just not good for me.

A decent beer, easy to drink, though the best aspect is the glow in the dark bottle around haloween time.

I’m not sure if it’s the style or what, but I wanted more hops. It had a very easy drink to it however. I will come back for more.

A cloudy amber color with a good long lasting creamy head. Bitter taste strongarms the floral and roasted caramel overtones. Not too hoppy though...

(1 pt. 6 fl oz.) A nice open amber color when poured. The aroma is pretty basic, although there is a bit of sweetness. The flavor continues to be sweet with a noticeable caramel taste. A really great feel. Medium bodied and easy to enjoy. A nice basic beer overall.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 tongatim (25) - Bellingham, Washington, USA - NOV 9, 2009
Pleasant sweet, fruity ale. I don’t understand how this could be considered a maibock, however. Estery, fruity, honey-flavored characteristics are not unpleasant, but certainly resemble a West Coast ale more than a lager. Nice warming character; reminds me of a lower alcohol version of Lagunitas’ Brown Shuggga’.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20 flowerysong (25) - USA - JUL 24, 2007
Appearance: Pours a slightly hazy burnt umber. Head is two fingers, decent retention.
Smell: Citrus notes over a malt field.
Taste: Bittersweet malt front leads into a middle that demonstrates medium hop bitterness, with fruity citrus hop flavour and piney overtones. Finish is long and malty, with some lingering bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied, maybe a bit over-carbonated.
Drinkability: Good balance between hops and malt. Very drinkable.

I had heard it was great, was merely pretty good. A little more bitter than I had hoped for, especially after a couple. All things said, I would buy it again.
