Aromas are malt, bread, caramel, and green grass. Flavors are similar to nose, mildly sweet with just enough bitter and carbonation to balance. Decent body and bittersweet finish. True to traditional style.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours clear gold with a moderate white head. Aroma is bready with hint of Tmavy and a light suggestion of Noble hop. Medium body or better. Flavor is bready and lightly roasty. Not a great deal of hop, but what there is seems Noble. There's an impression of ABV, but not really heat. Decent, tho somewhat suggesting those cheap high ABV tall boys.

500ml can. Pretty solid Maibock, definitely better than ratings would suggest here. Clean for the ABV. Nice brightness, true to style. Good.

Smell-weak malt, weka caramel. Foam-thin, malt, bit metallic, caramel, weak sweetness. Head is large, and white in color. Sticks. Appearance- simple can. Clear yellow color, few carbonation bubbles. From - pint Price - 1,49 euros for 0,5l Taste - malty, sweet, weak caramel, weak sugar, weak metallic tones. Weirdly sweet, but not too pleasant, feels more like added alcohol. Drinkable, but will not seek again.

Deep golden colour, with gentle carbonation and a decent head. Bready and worty malt aroma, with a light herbaceous hop note. The body is decent. Malt character is lightly bready, but also a bit on the sticky side. Minimal hop expression. A touch of alcohol shows through the finish. It's decent, honestly, not a great maibock but not bad.
