crizay (1050), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA Mar 3, 2007 Dark brown small beige head. Completely off the style of being a weizenbock main flavors are chocolate , caramel and crystal malts. Some banana faint in the background along with a nutty toasted malt flavor but this was pretty much a dopplebock with weizen yeast, not bad but not a weizen bock either. beeranarchist (184), Aalborg, Denmark Feb 28, 2007 Bottle. Red/brown. Yeasty aroma, fruity with a hint of banana. Very soft mouthfeel, high carbonation, flavour is dominated by fruit, bread and caramel. Though this is a good beer, I still prefer the german versions. Jvittorio4187 (255), Boardman, Ohio, USA Feb 24, 2007 Updated: Jun 17, 2007Massive, massive, massive. Very good. Heavy notes of fruit which progresed through aging. Avery never ceases to impress. nick76 (2634), Tampa, Florida, USA Feb 21, 2007 The aroma has chocolate, toffee, dark fruit, caramel, toasted malt, and light hops. The appearance is dark red brown with a two finger head. The flavor is like the aroma but with a lot more hop bitterness than expected not to mention lots of alcohol and a metallic element. The palate is smooth. I was pretty disappointed by the flavor of this beer. The aftertaste is absolutely repulsive. blank (998), Washington, Washington DC, USA Feb 20, 2007 this was a really cool beer. a very dark malty weiss beer. Had a solid rich flavor. A little too much alcohol in the taste. elektronikfagteknikerlærling (892), kbh, Denmark Feb 20, 2007 bottle. brown color. roasted sweet wheat aroma and taste. the roast is surprising. quite alcohollic. ok for a wheat. JCapriotti (1378), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Feb 18, 2007 Dark cola color, fizzy light tan head
Aroma is odd, but has brown sugared cherry pie.
Slightly smokey malt in a light wheaty fruit body, cherries, brown sugar.
Okay beer; a little forced.
IMtheOptimator (1161), Bethel, Connecticut, USA Feb 11, 2007 Poured dark ruby/mahogany with a small fizzy light tan head. Strong aroma of raisins, brown sugar, caramel, european hops, and a bit of molasses. Flavor is strong and good, with notes of smokey molasses and dark fruits and a dry grassy bitterness. Finish is sort of off-putting, being a tad salty, ashen, and metallic. Alcohol is present but not overly so, adding a mild burn to the flavor and a warming sensation to the swallow. A nice weizen-doppelbock that could be even better without the metallic finish.
