Commercial Description:
Vår Majbock är en hyllning till den starka öltraditionen i byn Einbeck. 1 maj varje år avslutades bryggarsäsongen med en festival där byns 700 bryggare gjorde upp om turordningen för att få använda den gemensamma bryggpannan. Vår Majbock bryggs som traditionen bjuder på malt, humle, jäst och vatten. Sedan får den jäsa kallt och lagras länge. Resultatet är en stark öl med utpräglat maltig karaktär av högsta kvalitet.

Bottled. Bright copper colour with creamy off-white head. Clean, malty aroma with notes of (twist of sour)dough, nuts and faint hops. Elegant malty flavour profile with freshly baked malts, little grassy hops, traces of chocolate and a perfect, gentle bitterness. Suggestions of spices, whatever they are. Smooth mouthfeel, almost oily/jellyish. Great Bock!

(Bottle) Pours copper-ish amber with a creamy off-white head. The aroma is malty up front with tones of, toast, bread, hay, roasted nuts, toffee and some caramel. The hop profile brings tones of grass and subtle herbs. The flavour is of bread, toast, mild caramel, nuts, hay, smooth milk chocolate fudge, grass, light herbs and light undertones of bread syrup. The mouthfeel is clean, soft, smooth, bit velvety, medium chewy and nothing less than perfect. Soft carbonation with small bubbles. The aftertaste is subtle and soft/velvety with hints of fudge/caramel, nuts and a tiny touch of hops. Medium bodied. A fantastic Bock, good job Grebbestad.

Aroma of both malt and barley flavour is warming and a bit metallic. A well balanced bock.

355 ml bottle. Glowing dark amber colour. Small off-white head. Clear. Strong caramel nose. Caramel is slightly roasted. Surprisingly light bodied, but there is a lot of flavours. High carbonation level. Quite hoppy flavours that balances the malty flavours nicely.
