I had this after the 2008 Stevens Point Bock Run(3/1/08) instead of gatorade at the brewery. Nice amber color, smelled rather metallic. There was not much taste, and nothing like a bock typically tastes. Mostly metallic tasting but just really watered down and then a strong alcohol after taste which was very unpleasant. Thank goodness they had their rootbeer also on tap post race to chase away this bad beer.

Hint of darkness. Smooth. A little thin. Not bad. ca. 2008

A - Ah twist off never a good sign. Eh not bad a solid inch of off white head atop of a orange brown tinted beer. Somewhat hazy with very sweet lacing.
S - Has some helles tones of yeasts and hops with a pungent yet subtle bit of alcohol with some caramel malts and bready body. Smell is full and interesting.
T - Wow that caramel malt is balanced, very malt forward indeed. Underneath I got some pretzel dough and a bit of hops. Surprisingly good!
M - Medium bodied for sure, a tad chewy. A nice full beer.
Overall I am pleasantly surprised this is up there with the "whole hog pumpkin" ale. Not too sweet yet has a decent malt presence. A very tasty bock indeed.

very nice, malt forward, clean better a few degrees warmer. very light head, not much head retention, but nice malty taste this was my first Maibock and it wont be my last if this is a good representation of the class then I'm going to hit it up again.

Reviewed from notes.
A. Clear golden orange color with a receding foam collar and passable lacing.
S. Smells lightly of morning sticky bun dough..only without the cinnamon if that makes any sense. I'm missing a significant hop or nut presence here, and not too pleased about it.
T. Much the same as the nose, sweet bread dough styled malts, only there is a touch of herbal hopping on the very tail end of the sip.
M. Smooth almost creamy textured medium body, lightly carbonated.
