Maibocks are a Bavarian beer style. Bocks are strong German-style lagers and can range from light to dark. Maibocks are typically golden to light amber. They were served in the Spring to celebrate the end of winter. The Bavarian mayor (burgermeister) traditionally taps the first keg. Hizzoner Maibock is a golden full-bodied lager that has been extensively lagered to develop sweetness and crispness of character.

Pleased to find a Maibock on draft at Mews Tavern in RI as it's often hard to find this style these days. Pours an amber color with a very mild sweetness in the aroma. That mild sweetness carries forward into the taste along with some faint malty background. Not surprised that there was very minimal bitterness. I ordered a second and appreciate the fact that Two Roads came out with this product although, thus far, I haven't seen it in a bottle or can.

Draught: This one pours a dark amber color. There was a small off white head that left just a little lacing. Good nose. Caramel malts and some fruits. The taste is good. Caramel malts, some fruits and earthiness. Nice.

True to style, but not quite enough malt sweetness for my liking.

I like maibocks so having this on draft was a treat. Easy drinking lager with the requisite sweetness I associate with beers of this style, a malt forward presence that is a nice change of pace. Nice clarity in the glass, but a bit more dark like a DIPA in appearance than I was expecting for a helles. Some caramel and vanilla on the nose but not overpowering.
