Bright golden color- light head, but good lacing. Medium carbonation. Slight, clean aroma, mostly of Saaz hops. Flavor is clean, malty sweet. Light yet pronounced flavor. Outstanding pils.

Loved this dark lager. Very rich and complex. Fans of serious dark lagers will want to hunt down any bottles they may have left.

This is perhaps one of the best beers I've ever tried, and certainly the best new beer I've discovered in a long time. Not quite a doppelbock in strength, but close. Malty sweet with a nice bitterness, with a warming sweet aftertaste. It comes bottle-conditioned in big 765mL bottles. This beer is so drinkable that I quaffed an entire one of these bottles within 20 minutes without any effort whatsoever. Seek out this beer!

The description above is very accurate, so I won't bother repeating it here. A very drinkable and enjoyable beer, but lacking in character, and thus not an entertaining beer.

A nice amber color. Moderate maltiness, and moderate hoppiness, with a definite dry-hopped character. Nice full head and balanced aroma (both sweet and floral). Just a wee bit on the thin side.

I believe that this is the beer now labelled as the Honey Double Mai Bock. It clearly has a strong honeyish flavor, which is only somewhat overwhelming. It also is very much a maibock, but doesn't have the strong malt presence of a double-bock, which it claims to be. Highly drinkable, but difficult to categorize.
