Soft aroma of malt and caramel. Nice, full body with plenty of malt. Caramel accents and a vaguely alcoholic finish. A pleasant Maibock without the sharp alcohol and bitter, hoppy finish that usually categorizes the style. 290606 PilsnerPeter (2667), Flushing, New York, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 11, 2006 Poured a clear amber color with an ok initial head that turned to just a rim around the top of the beer. Lacing was just above average, much better than the head would have led one to believe. The aroma was light caramel and some saaz hops. Flavor was caramel and light dark fruits, the latter unexpected based on the color and style. Nonetheless, they were light and the hops took over in the finish: light grassy saaz tones with a touch of spice to finish. Not a bad maibock at all. Alcohol a little sharp and the breadiness was underplayed (ie. not detected at all). Mouthfeel slightly sharp from the alcohol, but not cloying sweet like others have commented. Cabonation just right to wake up the taste buds. Enjoyable, although not at the top of its class. ElBorracho (472), Chicago, Illinois, USA
