Beer of the Week

The beer: Maximilian

Brewed by: HofbrÀuhaus Traunstein, Traunstein, Bavaria, Germany

Description (from the Brauhaus Schmitz website): "Dark fiery color, velvety soft to drink. An unforgettable intense malty flavor of toasty aromas, caramel and a delicate hint of chocolate. Dark – strong – powerful. Already a beer legend."

Would I buy it again? This is the second doppelbock I had at Brauhaus Schmitz, and this one is much more traditional than Aventinus. Very dark, very malty, very good. Everything you could ever hope for in a doppelbock and more. If I ever see it out in the world and not at one specific restaurant, I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.
