Excellent, but won't win a contest

This beer was intended to be a Maibock, but the OG ended up too low. It would have been an excellent Bohemian Pilsner, but the color was too dark. It would have been a good Vienna, but it was a little light-colored for that. Incredibly good beer, but not a good fit for any style.
