Rogue Dead Guy AleNice, I like it. Kinda malty and sweet. I don't know anything about Maibocks so I looked it up. I've had Sierra Nevada Glissade and remember really liking it. I know Smuttynose and will give that a shot. What else?
Glissade is a good one for domestic maibock, but I think Sierra Nevada unfortunately discontinued it in favor of their new Rye IPA. Dead Guy is one of my favorite beers, but I don't know why they call it a Maibock - actually, I think the label says its a "Maibock style beer", which is confusing because the name of the beer is "Dead Guy Ale" and they use their proprietary ale yeast - Pacman - to brew it. If you can get the maibock from Capital Brewery in Madison, WI, that's an excellent beer and may be one of the best you can find outside of Germany. If you really like the Dead Guy, a somewhat bigger, maltier brown ale that is one of my favorites is the WTF from Lagunitas.
