Lighthouse Brewing Co. – Maibock Review

Another beer coming from the beer capital of British Columbia – Victoria is Lighthouse Brewing Companies Maibock. Adorned with a majestic mountain goat on the label this amber coloured strong lager pours with two fingers of bubbly head. This fairly traditional style Bock smells of malt, orange, lemon and a touch of booze. Onwards from the smelling portion, the taste is crisp, fresh and lightly sweet with a toasted malt and citrus tone. A hop-bitterness comes in to play later on in the flavour profile giving an English style, lightly hop-bittered finish. Overall the Lighthouse Maibock has a reasonably heavy body and slightly boozy mid section speckled with citrus, sweet and lightly hopped notes making for a flavourful with a enjoyable beer.  Give it a try!
