Noble and strong, that's how beer connoisseurs describe the Hoepfner Maibock. Creamy foam, malt-emphasized flower, full-bodied taste with subtle hops.

(bottle)Clear, golden colour with a thick and dense foamy white head. Aromatic herbal hoppy nose with hay and a moderately sweet pale malt-character in the back. Moderately sweet flavour, medium bodied with a pleasantly smooth mouthfeel. Good malt-character, light grainy with herbal and slightly spicy hoppy notes from the beginning; medium-dry, malty finish with rounded herbal hoppy accents. Balanced Maibock (18.04.07).

Bottle. Sour barley malt and grassy hops aroma. Golden yellow color with small head. Sweet barley malt and bitter grassy hops. Slightest hint of astringency. Light for a bock.

Bottle. Clear, a bit pale, golden, with a white head. Malty, sweet and grainy nose and flavor. The flavor has a bitter hoppiness as well, leading to a dry, slightly bitter finish. Medium body. A decent maibock, but there’s nothing special to it. (070705)

500 ml bottle. Golden body with a white head. Vague malty aroma with some hops. Relativly neutral flavor, some bitterness but to ordinary for my taste.

Bottle, 6.6%. Refreshing, grassy hopppiness in aroma. Clear golden colour. Big, stable white head. The flavour starts off slightly sweet, turning peppery and then into a rough bitterness. Too rough for my liking.

Bottle. Anonymous nose. Pale golden, off-white creamy head. Strong, not too much flavor - uninspired.

Bottle bought in Marennes, France. Pale straw coloured with a middling white head. Fresh aroma of grass and herbs. Flavour was slightly sweet with a decent dry, hoppy finish. This beer conceals its strength well.

Bottle: Golden coloured with a mid-sized stable white head; fresh resinous-hoppy nose with traces of sweet malt; solid, robusr bitter-sweet flavour, medium body and gentle MF; distinctively lingering herbal hops in the quite dry bitter finish. A well rounded, moreish pale Bock........

(Bottle 50 cl) Rather pale for a Bock, actually not any darker than a standard pilsener, with a small creamy head. Hoppy nose with notes of alcohol. Very solid body with a marked sweetness and a warming alcohol. A potent and rather delicious brew. 220702
