Review: This beer is as close to an IPA as I will come. A slightly amber bock beer with a healthy malt consistency to even out the equally healthy hops consistency, Sprecher's Mai Bock is a great choice for someone who wants to relax in the summer sun and crack open a lighter tasting beer. It will prevent you from wasting your figure on a case of Miller Lite as well. Since bock beers were traditionally brewed to sustain monks during the fasting season, this will not only refresh, but fill you up after one or two beers. There are two kinds of beer drinkers. There are those who like to gorge themselves on cheap beer and get wasted by the end of the night and there are those who like to enjoy the tastes of different beers and take the edge off after two or three. I fall firmly into the second category. Sprecher's Mai Bock is a great beer to take with me on that fall.

Rating: 4.25 / 5
