| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 13, 2009 12 oz bottle purchased as a single at MDL Wine and Spirits in Overland Park, Kansas. Pour is a slight hazed golden orange with a well formed 2 inch off white head. Head falls slowly with nice lacing. Aroma of toasty honey sweet malt, grass, straw and a clean fruit element I can’t quite pin down. Taste loses quite a bit of the freshness and pleasantness of the nose, and turns more towards a slightly chemical cloying sweetness, with a hint of diacetyl and cardboard. As it warms, some of the toasty maltiness shows, saving it a bit. Palate is medium, mouth coating, long sweet finish. Not terribly clean. jaymobrown (1354), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Nov 11, 2009 This poured really light. Didn’t taste really like a bock. Fizzy with some head. Taste is really corn-like. Some basic grains. Not too many hops. dkoonce (884), People’s Republic of Athens, Ohio, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 7, 2009 Dark, with a modest head. Sweet, with a medium body. The biggest flavor is caramel, with malt and toffee. Finishes a bit long. One of the better from Dunee arondee (176), Tucson, Arizona, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Pours a dark golden yellow color with good carbonation and lacing. Aroma is wet grass and corn. Taste is sour corn, some malt, and a metallic finish. Another absolutely brilliant beer from Dundee. I can’t tell you how happy I am to have purchased the 12 pack sampler of this breweries crap that they call beer. moose85uofa (19), Alabama, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Oct 31, 2009 Sampler pack from VA. I always enjoy the lagers, but this one wasn’t my favorite. Had a smooth initial taste with a nice after taste....probably wouldn’t buy it individually. Dastrn (115), Warsaw, Indiana, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 29, 2009 Not great. Tastes of pepper and malts, with a little alcohol as well. Somewhat sweet, but it was overwhelmed by the peppery malts. Not well balanced. Not a fan. fluffy (229), Florida, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Oct 24, 2009 i dont know what to think of this beer. it was a weird mix of sweet light brown sugars, some mild hoppy bitterness and a alcohol burn. im not really that familar with maibocks so maybe it was just because im unfamilar with the style. but it seemed badly off-balanced. jjuf1853 (471), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 21, 2009 Bottle from sampler pack. Pours a clear, pale amber color with a dense, foamy white head. Mildly sweet, roasted malt aroma. Flavor includes caramel and toffee malt. Slight sweetness up front followed by a touch of bitterness in the finish. Although not an overly high % the alcohol seems fairly noticeable, which is a bit surprising. Decent overall.
