Commercial Description:
The origins of Bock beer can be traced back over 600 years to the town of Einbeck, Germany. The great taste and aroma of fresh malt are the main flavor components of this style, but the hops, though still in the background, also play an important role by not allowing the malt to completely dominate the palate. These deep golden colored lager beers were made to replace the darker winter brews and the name Maibock refers to the month of May when these springtime beers made their debut.

Copper pour with aroma of hops, fruit, caramel malt, and spice. Great maibock taste, with a great, smooth finish and notable complexity.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear copper color with thin white head that dissipated quickly. No lace. Grainy and malty brown sugar aroma. Flavor is dominated by same grain with a light, fleeting hop fruitiness. Dry and very effervescent, almost to a fault.

On tap at Bean and Barrel. Pours a coppery amber with a fair consistency. The head is thin, white, and frothy. The aroma is sweet and has some sweet fruit notes. The flavor is really sweet, some fruit that I can’t place my finger on, some slight hop, and maybe corny flavors. The palate is clean and cool. Very refreshing and palatable.

On tap @ brewery. Amber color with a thin off-white head. Mild aroma of grains, noble hops. Taste isn’t really suggestive of a maibock, more like an ale - light grains, a small yeast component, very slight spice. Not that great.

Pours a light brown color with a decent head. Aroma is nutty with hints of caramel. Flavor is slightly malty, sweet, and dry. Not much going on here as this brew is a bit thin, but over all i did enjoy this brew. It was refreshing.
