Have not had the good pleasure to enjoy this brew in many years. It's only available on tap in the US anymore, and it seems like it only gets sent to the city proper in the Chicago area -- until now. Actually available in scenic Wildwood, IL.
A -- Clear, pale gold, even near to straw color, with a white head that holds up okay.
S -- Light bready nose with some yeastiness peeking through.
T -- Bready malt up front with some vague hops back.
M -- Soft mouthfeel with a light medium body.
D -- Very good drinkability in this beer. I have to be honest and say that my first thought is that it reminded me of Capital's Maibock -- probably a big compliment to the Cap, but certainly a nice Bavarian Maibock on its own.
