Pick up @Aldi's whenever it comes in, worth every penny, which isn't much. Too bad it's not year'round. Happy tilting!

Didn't totally rock my world but the Brewer at least understands the difference between a "Maibock" and a "Heller Bock".An uncommon feat among bigger german Breweries.

L: A slightly copper-hued gold with a full finger of beige froth. Lacing is mostly temporary.
S: Sweet caramel and bready malts, peppery spices, and apple juice.
T: Follows the nose. A hay or straw quality also. Good.
F: Smooth mouthfeel with high-moderate weight and gum-tingling high carbonation.
O: Not pure for style, but in the realm. Still it is quite good and held up extremely well with the older cans I’ve tried. Underrated currently in no opinion. Solid.

Poured into a Pint Defiance tulip. The body is a clear golden yellow, with a three finger white head. Aromas consist of baked bread, apple, grain, and a hint of baking spices. Flavors are the same, but there is some sweet toffee and a mildly bitter herbal finish. The feel is medium bodied with high carbonation.

Good comment by Steveh's review on the pilsner character of this maibock. The color is lighter than most maibocks I've sampled, and its peppery nature seeems more like a Bohemian beer rather than a Bavarian one. Still. the result is very good, and I'm running down to Aldi asap to see if I can pick up a couple more 4-packs of this fine lager. IMO, this is the best brew Aldi has imported to date.

Purchased at Aldis, a 4 pack of 16oz cans for $5.99. 7.2% ABV. OG=16.4 per website.
Pours out to a brilliantly clear edmium golden, forming a tall rocky head with very good retention and solid lacing. Carbonation is medium, ~2.5 carbs or so. The nose smells like a maibock, freshly mown hay, delicate german spicy hops, freshly baked bread crust, grain husk, slight caramel. The taste is wonderful...crisp clean mouthfeel with a firm malt base with husk and cracker and hay, followed by a beautifully balanced medium to firm hop bitterness which lingers into the aftertaste and a soft suggestion of warmth and peppery alcohol. No off flavors or aromas, however the peppery alcohol and bitterness are perhaps on the top end of the spectrum for the style.
A very nice maibock. Definitely worth trying and very nice for the price. Better than most of the US versions I've tried. I'll be buying more of these and they would go great with some traditional german wurst and warm potato salad. Mmmm.
