Provisions Series - Bierbauch

Pours clear with a half glass of tightly packed white foam. Retention is well above normal but doesn't leave its mark. Aroma is clean. Lemon, yeast, and a touch of sweet malts. Slightly spicey and a touch of fruit. Maybe even citrus. Taste is lemon and other fruits that has a touch of yeast along with spicey notes that finish off the beer. The spice and alcohol warm the throat. Here and there late flavors of vanilla. Medium body with mild carbonation at best. Definitely dries the palate. An interesting maibock that has a bit of the barrel showing through. Alcohol and hoppiness of the beer are important to the style and this one hits it. Enjoy!
