Eschenbräu Maibock

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with good clarity and bright, inviting lustre. The unfiltered character brings subtle haze from suspended yeast and protein matter. Head formation is generous, with fine bubbles that cling well to the glass, leaving a delicate lace as the level drops.

◌ Aroma

Clean malt-forward nose with prominent notes of biscuit and honey, reflecting the strong malt body and high original gravity. Subtle noble hop character emerges beneath—restrained floral and herbal notes that do not dominate. No phenolic or ester-driven yeast contribution; the aromatic profile remains straightforward and welcoming.

◐ Taste

Smooth malt sweetness on entry, with a medium body that feels full and grain-forward across the mid-palate. The restrained bitterness—only 35 IBU—integrates softly, allowing honey and light caramel notes to persist. Balanced rather than complex, with no harsh edges or astringency; the modest hop presence serves to dry and focus the finish.

◑ Finish

Medium finish with lingering malt character and a faint honey-sweet note that fades gracefully. The aftertaste remains clean and uncluttered, free of cloying residue, inviting another sip.

Serve at 12–16°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
