Maibock

Maibocks are usually full-bodied lagers whose alcohol content can vary widely though is typically between 5-6%ABV.

The color of Maibocks can vary from light bronze to deep amber and they are characterized by a sweet malty palate and subtle hop character.

As the name of the beer suggests this is a bock style that traditionally makes a spring appearance in May as a celebration of a new brewing season.

In a Germanic brewers portfolio, it should conventionally have a less assertive character than other bock offerings later in the year.
