Poured from a bottle into a lager glass. Pours a Medium amber, with a finger and a half worth of head. The smell is quite hoppy if you ask me, With light toasted malt and bread. The taste virtually follows the smell. Tastes hoppy, Some light malt, Some wet bread and slightly strong skunk. Weird for the type, Eh?, It all piled together nicely thought. The mouthfeel somewhat follows, Though it allows more of the skunk to come through. Overall, A VERY easy to drink beer. Seriously, I would buy this for ANY occasion. Though at $2.50 a bottle, The prices are a bit too high for what you get. Drop your prices, And you'll consistently have my ( and I'm sure thousands of others ) business

I have apparently lost the tasting notes on this beer. I do remember I thought it was pretty good overall.

Looking forward to having another. I'll amend the notes once I retry the beer.

I did not score A, S, T, M at that time, so please disregard those scores.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4

Pour was from a 22oz bottle into a Pint glass and the cloudy Orange/Brown color was very nice, thick White head reached 2 1/2 fingers and hung around. It was hard to get a definable aroma, malty sweetness is what came through and maybe some mild hops. Taste is where I really fell for this Ale, sweet with a tangy after taste...some bitters on the back of the tongue and a malty finish. The mouthfeel was solid with a medium smooth drinkablity. Overall it's a very fine Maibock, great taste, decent ABV and it looks good in a Pint glass.
