Impression: Happy to find a Maibock on tap for my 500th Franconian beer review on Beerwanderers. Unfiltered golden with a creamy head, it’s served on the cold side and a bit fizzy but nicely balanced with some floral hops in both the nose and palate along with plenty of malt backbone and a touch of honey. Lingering finish is semi-dry and bittersweet.

Next beer or back to the beer list.

I'm an American living in Munich. Why? Well, I came for the beer but stayed for the girl. I'm very happily married to a German woman. Of course, the bonus of great beer certainly doesn't hurt. An avid love of hiking and finding new beers has led me to found beerwanderers, an information resource on beer hiking trails in Franconia with an emphasis on Franconian food specialties and the endless variety of amazing beer the region is renowned for. I also just published my first book Beer Hiking Bavaria which features 50 beer hikes in Bavaria.

    1. Thanks to online orders I kept a good pace during the lockdown, probably getting more new beers in that I might have otherwise. That said, it was nice to have a draft for the big 500th! 🙂
