It was a long, long time ago, that the Hofbräu Maibock was brewed for the first time: In 1614 the bottom-fermented beer specialty filled beer steins for the first time. Even today, Munich's oldest bock beer is still as popular as ever with its full-bodied, malty flavor. The relatively high alcohol content of 7.2% Vol. doesn’t do things half-way – and satisfies, especially honest beer connoisseurs.

0,5 l botttle. Pours out in the glass clear red golden, maybe copper, with a huge head. Smell is sweet sticky malty. Taste starts decent malty, light fruity, later grainy and increasing toasted malt, all in a smooth way. No real bitterness. Nice one.

Auch den Bock konnte ich mit ein paar Kumpels 2015 im Hofbräuhaus in München trinken. Es ist ein fruchtiger Bock, der in Bayern recht beliebt ist. Der Alkohol ist dabei nicht zu brutal und es lässt sich gut trinken, auch wenn es doch als Bock voll zu erkennen ist.

Süffig-süßlich im Beginn, frisch und leicht. Die helle und typische Bockbier-Süße kommt zum Hauptteil durch, bleibt aber frisch und nicht zu tief. Mild und leicht. Im Nachgeschmack etwas süßlicher werdend, nicht sonderlich herb, sehr süffig.

At a tasting, thanks kerenmk, smallish creamy head, clear very light brown, colour with orange hues, malty aroma with brad and paper notes, candy malty flavour with some herbal bitterness, alcohol showing through, a little heavy. Drinkable but not really interesting.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Beer Market Jaffa. Thanks kerenmk. Clear deep golden with an off-white head. Aroma of malt, some graininess, bread, a herbal hint and an alcoholic touch. Sweetish flavor, malt, a bit alcoholic, with grains and a slightly bitterish finish with a herbal hint. Medium-bodied.

Bottle. Pours clear amber with airy but stable off-white head. Clear aroma of hops, with sweetish notes of malt and yeast and a hint of butter. Sweetish, malty flavour, with hints of caramel, and with regulary hoppy notes. Perceptible alcohol bitterness. Bittersweet aftertaste. Not bad for its style but nothing I would drink for pleasure.
