1 000 swing-top bottle, bought at the FdBK in Köln. Poured in a Seidel an unfiltered and hazy dark amber-chesnut coloured MB with a two fingers beige foamy head that had a short retention and tons of micro bubbles.Sustained carbonation. Poor lacing. The flavour is sweety toasted malts, caramel, fruity, oranges and herbal hops. The flavour is sweety and caramel malts, fruity, pears, grapes, citrus, oranges, spicy, cinnamom and a heavy hoppy bitterness. The mouthfeel is thick, a bit sticky and amazing smooth. The sweety / hoppy balance is great. The texture is watery. This full bodied MB has a dry sweety and hoppy bitter finish. Waoohh ! This Siegburger Maibock is a splendid Maibock, not from Bavaria but from the unexpected Rhineland. I like it.

Siegburger Maibock

1 000 ml swing-top bottle, bought at the FdBK, in Köln. Poured an unfiltered and strong hazy rich golden-amber coloured S A with a one finger beige foamy head that had a long retention and tons of micro bubbles. Sustained carbonation. Good lacing. The aroma is an amazing overwhelming spicy sensation, lemon-myrtle and flowery, roses. The flavour is herbal bitter and intensely spicy, with the characterful lemon-myrtle, on a sweety grainy malty base. The mouthfeel is round and very smooth in spite of a sour bitterness. The texture is is watery. This light to medium bodied S A has a lingering spicy, lemon-myrtle finish. The smell has more power as the palate but what a bewitching plant as this herb called lemon-myrtle ! Definitively the try worth !!. Thanks, Karl-Ulrich, for this splendid creation. An Ale that's I remember for a long time

Ein weiterer Test vom "Festival der Bierkulturen" wurde für den "Siegburger Maibock" geschrieben: Bernsteinfarben und filtriert, im Antrunk herb - wie ein echter Maibock! Dazu ein lang-anhaltender herrlich-aussehender sahniger Schaum! Herrlich! Seit diesem Genuss haben wir uns fest vorgenommen das Siegburger Abteibrauhaus zu besuchen! Bislang haben wir leider noch nicht die Möglichkeit dazu gehabt, doch empfehlen - jedenfalls die Biere - kann man!
