Jun 30, 2007 22 oz. I bought a few weeks ago (also just got one as a bonus from bmartin08 - thanks!!) Golden color with a nice pillowy head. Aroma has a nice crisp citrus essence mixed with freshly-baked bread. Flavor has a bit of tart citra-sweetness with some pleasant bready malts, fresh honey, and enough hops to remind you that this aint no weak ass lager. Nice brew - really makes you think of a warm spring day.

Jun 28, 2007 Pours copper with a nice white sustained head. Smells of biscuits, citrus, lemons, a nice caramelly malty backdrop and some rosey hints. Tastes of caramel, mellow malt, light peppery splashes, hints of citrus, some earthiness and honey. Mouthfeel is sugary with a light hoppy finish. This is an excellent interpretation of the style.

Jun 27, 2007 Poured a crisp golden color with a foamy, lacing white head. Aroma is all spice and yeast with very little noticeable hop. Flavor is more of the same, spicy/herby with a distinct European yeast flavor. Light malt, slight bitterness from the hops. Finish is nice, slightly thick tipping off the heavier alcohol. I don’t love the style, but they really got what they were going for which is respectable.

Jun 25, 2007 Slightly hazy, amber/orange appearance with a medium size, off white head and good lacing. Sweet, caramel malt aroma accented with soft fruits. Pleasing, toffeeish taste, sweet, fruity, malty, mildly herbal, with a low keyed hop presence. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a decent amount of carbonation. Long lasting, honeyed finish.

Jun 22, 2007 The highest rated maibock not retired apparently. Pours clear copper color and one finger of head. Aroma is honey, nutsm and a little nail polish remover. Flavor is surprisingly bitter. A bit of grape juice, honey, and a little spice. quite sweet. finishes with a hint of alcohol. perhaps one of the better bocks but not a very strong category in my opinion. prickly carbonation.

Jun 22, 2007 Clear golden body with a thick white head. Sweet, malty, lightly spicy aroma. Initial sweet honeyed taste, followed by grassy, grape, bready flavor. Dry, modestly bitter aftertaste.
