Sep 13, 2008 Deep orange-amber beer with a cream tan head. Aroma is nice and sweet but there is an unappealing dustiness as well. Fairly prominent apple/diactyl butter aroma as well. Flavour is sweet but full of this distracting dustiness. It’s kind of a mess.

Jul 11, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Light, almost see through amber tan with slight head retention. Aroma really doesn’t consist of much beyond a bit of sweet malt. The flavor is generally good, with sublte hints of malty goodness blended with a nice crisp lagered hop bite at the end. Nice for the summer. Nothing to scream about.

Jul 7, 2008 Amber color and hints of spice. Very sweet and enjoyable. Would drink again if I could find it.

May 5, 2008 Graduation weekend on tap at Scotty’s in Bloomington. Upland Maibock is an orange/copper color with a nicely built off-white head. The aroma is fantastic with sweet malts, caramel and fruit. The taste is full of fruit and is very enjoyable. This is one of Upland’s best.

Apr 30, 2008 Pours Amber with a light, malt flavor. Very on par with most bocks I’ve had. Rather strong-ish bitter aftertaste, but nothing all that bad.
