Hübner Maibock

Hübner Maibock is a balanced fruity Hellerbock with lots of floral hops in both the nose and palate. The lingering finish is semi-bitter and quite dry for the style.

Rittmayer Maibock

Rittmayer Maibock is one of the drier Hellerbocks I've come across. The combination of rich malt and obvious hops is something I wish more breweries would attempt. This is my favorite of the Rittmayer line-up.

Penning Maibock

Penning Hetzelsdorfer Maibock is a May treat from the small countryside brewery whose Vollbier is legendary. This Bock has a gorgeous amber hue and rich malty palate with hints of caramel. The lingering bittersweet finish makes it moreish at 6.5%.
