Experience pale malt flavors deftly balanced with savory hops in our spring lager. Dry hopping and extended aging give this blonde bock its distinctive floral aroma, enticing hop bite, and smooth malt finish.

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 30 Sep) Amber colour with disappearing off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with some malt sweetness and notes of figs and dates. Same goes for the taste: malty and fruity with figs and raisins. Initially sweet, turning into a drier finish with flowery hops. Well balanced and tasty.

Bottled. Orange/amber colour, small white head. Aroma is rye, white bread and sweetish hops. Slight buttery notes also. Flavour is rue, caramel, butter and malts. The finish is quite hayish. Smooth and drinkable.

[Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival] Clear golden. Buttery malt aroma. Medium sweet with chewy, buttery malt character. Crisp with light grassty hoppiness and solid body. Thoroughly well made pale bock.

Kind of a light copper color with thin white head. Fairly light aroma of sweet malts and maybe a little hops. There is an assertive hop presence that outweighs the traditional Mai Bock sweet maltiness. Nice well rounded beer. Sweet malt lingers into the after taste.

The aroma is more herbal than flowery. Light orange. Flavor is medium sweet, mildy bitter hops, and more herbs. Medium body.

Clear golden colour with a light off-white head and bright tints of orange. Aroma of coriander seed, hops, wheat and a light spice-more like a wheat than a bock! Medium-bodied; Tart initial taste with some hops and large floral tastes. Long fresh taste finishing dry, showing the hops. Overall, a nice beer-a deviation from the norm, but definitely worth trying if you can find it! I sampled this 16 ounce bottle purchased from Premier Gourmet in Buffalo, New York on 10-July-2004 on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

Pours a nice amber color. Aroma is malty. Flavor is a very bitter hoppyness. NIce malts used in this one. A good beer for a nice spring day.

Light bronze; aroma like chocolate chip cookie dough, with slight notes of smoke and rye (whiskey); evenly balanced, malty palate - firm, but finishing dry and smooth. Well-made. Perfect for rainy days in May.
