Bottle. Pours a beautiful copper color with an off white, fairly quickly receding head. Nose is light caramel, light toffee, light leather. Flavor is toffee, caramel, toast, with a somewhat biscuity finish. On the sweeter side, could be a tad dryer. Pleasant carbonation.

Bottled. Cant tell the color. Malty breads aroma. Similar taste with overpowering malty sweetness. Decent.

Clear light redish brown with small light brown foam head. Aroma is light caramel with little coffee. Taste is nice bitter, small coffee. Nice long lasting aftertaste. (Houston 201303)
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Central Market bottle. From my experience with maibocks (which is not much) this seemed pretty true to form. They always seem to be a little alcohol forward; this one included. Good but this is not really my style.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 8/20
A malt forward aroma. Some caramel also noted. Pours a clear amber with a rapidly dissipating off-white head and minimal lacing. The taste is lightly sweet. Strong malt flavors combined with bread, caramel, and a touch of grain in the finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Almost a creamy mouthfeel. Overall, I liked it. While slightly sweet it was subtle and not cloy at all. It went well with lunch - rice, corn, and black beans. Yumm
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 4/20
from notes: poured amber with a small white head that disspated really quickly. the smell consisted of some citrus, alcohol, and hops. The taste i didn’t care for, mostly alcohol and hop bitterness.

Clean light amber/orange hue, thin white head. Roasted malt in the nose. Sweet...really sweet. Carmel in the middle, slightly oily. Faint hop presense at finish.

This draft brew from the brewery poured a medium sized head of foamy white colored bubbles that were and left behind a no visible carbonation transparent light brown colored body and a fair lacing. The almost non-existent aroma was malty and sweet. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish. The nice flavor contained notes of sweet dough caramel breads and malt. A decent one that I would consider drinking again.

no bock can even come close to this, probably houston’s best mass distributed seasonal.
