Enegren Maibock Spring Lager: My Sip of the Week!

I’ve been off the grid lately due to lots of life changes: a new home, new job, new office…you get the picture. But I couldn’t help but throw together this Sip of the Week, dedicated to a beer I’ve been thoroughly enjoying for a couple months now: Enegren Brewing Company’s Maibock Spring Lager.

You may remember my blog post a few months ago featuring Enegren’s Baltic Maple Porter. To the surprise of many, that porter was also a lager! If you haven’t read that post, be sure to check it out. I talk all about what makes a beer a lager, something few beer drinkers really know. I hope will give you a new appreciation for that style of beer!

Well, Enegren is back at it again making this awesome Maibock Spring Lager.

It has a caramel color, slightly nutty flavor, and substantial hop flavor. It’s equally refreshing as it is complex, and makes it perfect for either a nightcap or a poolside beverage. It rings in at 35 IBU, 7% ABV, and can be purchased in bright green, Bavarian-inspired, 16-ounce cans.

Enegren’s Maibock Spring Lager has kept me company on a couple of occasions recently.

We brought it with us on our camping trip up highway 395 back in April, and it paired perfectly with the spring wildflowers we found at our campsite. More recently, the Maibock was my go-to sip as I packed, moved, and unpacked over the course of the last two weeks. Pro tip: good beer (and good wine) makes the whole “moving” thing much more manageable.

If you find yourself in Moorpark, California, pay a visit to Enegren’s beerhall. Enegren echoes all things Germany. The taproom features Bavarian flags, lots of German beer styles and a giant wooden picnic table to be shared by their guests. Their Oktoberfest and Frühlingsfest events make for a perfect excuse to put on your lederhosen, too!

Well, that’s all for now. Back to the reality of unpacking…but maybe I’ll grab myself a Maibock to make it a little more fun. 😉

Cheers!

Hi Caitlin! That sky with the mountains in the background is stellar!

I’ve been using the quarantine to catch up a bit.
I’ve now visited more than 50 countries, and just put together a post on how I travel so much here –
