From a 16oz can. Canned April of 2024. Purchased at the brewery.

Dark golden pouring beer that is slightly murky looking. There's a 2 finger fluffy white head. The head retention is pretty good and there's some nice lacing on the glass.
The aroma is light. I do get some malt and a slightly fruity aroma.
Taste - The flavor starts off full on malty buttery biscuit. The malty flavor does fade and I do get a slight fruity flavor here. It does seem a bit unusual, but it does seem to work.
The body is decent. It has a slightly creamy feeling. Very smooth feeling.
I will always gladly get this beer again when it is released next year.

Poured transparent honey color with a nearly white head which didn’t stick around for long. But it sure looks nice in the glass.
The taste is a touch hop forward with some bready malt flavors playing support.
The feel is light and oh so quaffable. This is a pleasure to drink.
OA, I don’t tend to buy these myself but when I drink one I often wonder if I should change that.

16oz can served in a Monhegan pint glass. Can is not dated as far as I can tell. My can's label says it's 7% abv. Got it from @Victory_Sabre1973 in NBS BIF #18.

Pours clear light amber, brassy undertones, smallish head, moderate active carbonation at rest. Smell is nutty bread, maybe walnut and dark bread. Definite grass with a slight lemon note peeking through.

Earthy bitterness comes through in the flavor, offset nicely with the bready sweetness. Maybe not so much grass now, but some kind of cut green vegetation.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied and dry on the palate. Overall, very nice, enjoyable beer.

Nice clean, well executed maibock.

Deep gold/light copper colored....nice aroma of sweet malts and spicy/floral hops.

The taste brings nice maltiness but the spicy hops are more than a bit player. This leans to the malt but the hops add a little spicy/peppery impression and contribute to a mildly dry finish.

This is a well made maibock. Love it when this place does lagers. They do them well.
