This maibock is a nod to the tradition of brewing and ageing strong beers in winter and releasing them in spring. We brewed ours way back in February and, after a long fermentation and eleven weeks of lagering in tank, it’s now ready to drink.

It has simplicity and finesse: we brewed it with only Pilsner malt and Tettnanger hops (Single Malt And Single Hop, hence the name). It’s malty, strong and full-flavoured, but still lighter and hoppier than a classic bock, making it very easy to drink for the strength. A true celebration of Spring. We hope you enjoy!

330ml bottle. Batch 390. 6.7% ABV.
L: Light haze, dark gold with a thin, white head.
S: Pale malt and hint of spicy lemon.
T: Sweet, honey malt and vinous, almost herbal, hop.
F: Full bodied, foaming carbonation and a rich, smooth mouthfeel that finishes dry.
O: A rich and alcoholic lager. Maybe not as bready as a traditional German bock but not undercooked at all. The Tettnanger hops really shine. Very good.
