Maibock

?

Einbecker-style strong bock beer. Dark gold in color, Maibock is balanced by its smooth, rich maltiness.   A bit over 7% abv.

 

Tuppers:  Very malty, but avoids being cloyingly sweet.  I had to switch to the Czech Lager for my second beer because it's simply one of my favorite beers in the world right now, but Ellie stayed with the Maibock, and that says volumes about its drinkability.
