Commercial Description:
Bananas and cloves tickle your nose. Rum raisins and licorice dance on your tongue. Joy and happiness abound. This bee was born a Weizenbock, but it grew up a strong Belgian Dubbel. Happy Holidays.

Pours a dark warm amber brown with a fairly persistent tan head. Aroma is strong and wheaty with an undertone of banana and a touch of spice. Rich wheaty flavor has a banana tone and hints of cloves. Texture is smooth and creamy, a little tingly. Excellent.

Draft. Murky, amber color. Aroma of spices and grass. Flavor is nice and zesty. A good mix between the yeast, grass, and lemon hints.

The beer reflects its heritage. The wheat is present as well as the clovey spice of the Belgian dubbel, although if I had had to guess without knowing the name or ingredients I would probably just assume it was a dubbel. A little on the thin side but very tasty.
