| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 6, 2008 Very nicem, not so crafty, but nice spicy aroma, and sour taste. Very alcoholic taste and brown ale features. MrRain (434), O’Fallon, Illinois, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 30, 2008 12oz bottle poured in a lager glass. HMM pours golden and slightly hazy but with no discernible pulp. The nose is light and hard to describe but fresh linen, honey and fruit come to mind. The taste is quite mild and enjoyable. The malt dominates but a faint floral flavor is evident as well. This tastes like a nice session beer but at 7.2% ABV I wouldn’t recommend making an evening of these. The alcohol is non-evident despite its elevated status. The body is medium in weight with little aftertaste. This is a nice "average" beer. Swalden28 (1515), McKinney, Texas, USA

Good beer....poured a dark clear, reddish amber with off white head. Aroma was great, all that malty sweetness hitting your nose. Flavor was very good, nice malty and dark roast flavors and seems to have a hint of honey. Spicy on the toung. Would buy again....Need to drink with a smoked braut next time..... efrumtheidiot (190), Maryland, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 18, 2008 pours a crystal clear reddish copper with a yellowy tan head. aroma of sweet malt, pepper and toasty bread. a faint hint of apple. taste is some green pepper, malt, some corn, very subtle hops, some earthy notes, and some cider. main flavors dissapate fairly quickly, but a nice dry sensation is left in the mouth. nice lacing, and a thin layer of head remains. really can’t taste the alcohol at all. mid-bodied with a smooth and crisp palate. slight metallic flavor. would go nicely in a stein! kempicus (350), Wellington, New Zealand
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 4, 2008 Tasted thanks to Greig! Lovely enjoyable Maibock, one of my favourites by HB. Has a great mouthfeel coupled with lovely malty peppery, heathery notes coupled with a touch of smoke. greig (172), Hamilton, New Zealand
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 22, 2007 A very tasty Maibock, full of toasted bread notes, and a hint of smoke. Not as sweet as I remember it, and a great balancing bitterness, though no noticable hop aroma. Far too easy to drink for a 7.2% beer! kappldav123 (1872), Markkleeberg, Germany
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 18, 2007 An interesting beer. Looks very good in the glass, dark, nearly copper-coloured. It’s strong but not too dry, it’s easy to keep it in mind. A good beer. JLAudio (282), Crestwood, Illinois, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 7, 2007 Pours a nicely hued red color with a nice head. It has aromas that are dry and semi sweet bread dough and biscuit. It is well rounded, fuller bodied for this style, and offers an aray of biscuit malt, caramel, and slight hop resin. It is creamy, and smooth, and dense. It is a solid heller.
