Bottle. Clear gold/yellow with a very lovely white head. Aroma of peat, smoke, hay and malts. Taste of malts, smoke, a barn full of cute goats, peat and hay with a little bit of liquorice a dash of grapefruit in the background. Zesty, earthy and spicy. Moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. Alcohol is very well incorporated. Very balanced and dangerously drinkable. Rather unusual but tremendous Maibock. Brilliant.

Pax Bräu Maibock, jetzt mit 7,8 %, Literflasche aus Pax-Bräu Halbjahres-Abo. - Satt goldgelb, klar. - In der Nase kernige aber gedämpfte Hopfung: Zitrusfrucht, bittere Orangenschale und Harz über schwerem hellen Malz, leise Anklänge an Lakritz. - Antrunk füllig und schwer gerstig-hellmalzig, dennoch von frühlingshafter Frische dank kräftiger zitrusfruchtiger (Zitronenöl, Pampelmuse) und grasiger Hopfenherbe, deren Aromenwerte in dieser Malzumklammerung freilich nicht voll zur Geltung kommen (was aber wohl beabsichtigt ist). Dezente Restsüße; ganz leise Anklänge an Lakritz und Rauch. Milder rezent, schwer aber nicht mastig; gut kaschierter Alkohol. Ein gewisser Trinkwiderstand ist zu überwinden: dieser Bock läuft nicht herunter wie Zuckerwasser. Im Abgang rasch abklingende Fruchtigkeit und nachhallende hopfenwürzige, leicht erdige Herbe. - Sehr malzschwerer Maibock mit kerniger aber doch gebremster Hopfung und interessanten, untypischen Nebenaromen, die ihm das besondere Etwas verleihen. Probierenswert! (22.5.2024.)

Optisch klares Gold, ordentlich Schaum. In der Nase rauchig, auch im Trunk dezent Rauch, leichte Süße, spät alkoholisch, okay.

Bottle. Nose is almost apple, sweet, wheat. Palate is sweet, wheat, a bit dirty almost. Meh.

1L bottle. Amber, great lasting head. Sweet nutty nose, hint of smoke, flavor adds great balanced bitterness. Much preferable to most Maibock I've tried.

Bottle. Unclear golden color with white head. Aroma is fresh hops, honey, marmalade, earthy, herbal, smokey. Taste is the same, earthy, again marmalade, cooked veggies, smoke, leathery, bitter herbal finish. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Fun!

Schnapp-Fläschla (0,01hl, label says 7.8%):Golden, hazy, bigger firm and stable white head; distinctive aromas of pale malt, smoked malt and - weaker - lemony hops; pretty solid bitter-sweet flavour, medium to full bodied, a bit tart; lingering dryish fruity-bitter and smoky and malty finish. An unusual Bock, nevertheless very moreish...
