Different version of Stoudt’s Honey Double Mai Bock? Slick candied malts hide tamped down hops, ripe orange lucidity, and warbled honey mildness for disappointing blonde presumptuousness. Sharp alcohol profundity ruins citric nuances while tinny phenol finish kills the deal completely.

STOUDT’S HONEY DOUBLE MAI BOCK
Extremely well-defined rust-coppered springtime doppelbock contrasts bubbly champagne wining against subtly smooth burgundy entry and richly creamed chocolate sweetness, promoting elegant warmth. Yeast sediment thickens inviting honey-spiced finish. Despite hybridized maibock tag, it’s perhaps the most enjoyable honey brewed beer on the market.

UPLAND BAVARIAN-STYLE MAIBOCK
(DE DOLLE) BOS KEUN SPECIAL PAASBIER
Effervescent yeast sweetness lightens barleywine primacy and herbal bouquet of billowy white-headed Easter warmer. Burnt wood chips affect smoked barleymalt prominence invading clove-coriander-spiced honeyed raisin twinge. Grape-soured cider sharpness enlivens tart red wine finish. Strong, but never pungently so.
EINBECKER MAI-UR BOCK
Musk-like sour yeast pungency, cake-like sugar malts, and cherry-blackberry-nectar fruiting stay up-front for coppery springtime bock. Cereal-grained shortbread sweetness counters minor cornstarch depravity to stone-fruited middle ground, overwhelming barleywine flourish and wafting honeysuckle-magnolia-dandelion reminder. Better than just OK.
