| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 10, 2007 My Bottom Line:
Candied dark fruit and clovey spiciness smoothe into a hefty body made for sipping. This Americanized Weizen Bock will surely please malt lovers looking for intimacy.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam shields the darkened burgundy.
-Effervescence is rather soft for the style.
-Alcohol is very well-hidden.
-Some roastiness appears, as supporting herbal hops attempt to dry out the finish, which remains mostly sweet.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 26, 2006 Dark pour that is not quite black, with a thick cream colored head. Berries and chocolate nose with a bit of dust. Tangy oatmeal, caramel, chocolate milk mix, nutmeg, a bit of banana flavor. Finish is dry with a noticeable alcohol bite., oh yeah, 9.5% that explains that I guess. Port like flavors. Not a bad beer.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 14, 2006 Pour of deep dark mahogany, rimmed with white. Aroma is a subdued almond fruits, with some sweet rustic edges. Flavor is a wash of warming dryed out malt character, with some hints of hazlenut, pecan and caramel. Toasty and full of date sweetness. Alcohol plays low. Lacks a run of balance in the back. I thought that a wheaty character should have been more pronounced, instead it seemed absent, especially in an sort of texture or tooth. Fruityness, downplayed in my mind as well. demitriustown (702), Shelby Township, Michigan, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 26, 2008 Bomber: Aroma permeates with dark fruit, a nice spicy caramel malt overtone, toffee, licorice, a slight scent of chocolate, and a bit of alcohol. Appearance is a deep ruby color with a medium sized tan head that diminishes into a film. Taste is got a really nice malt characteristic, wheat, and on the backend the spices come through. Palate is lightly sweet on the lips, somewhat tongue coating, and aftertaste has a lingering fruity malt characteristic. Overall, an enjoyable beer to say the least. Nice aroma, looks inviting, and a nicely complex taste. Cheers! mgumby10 (1858), Jupiter, Florida, USA

Smell is pretty unique, definitely can tell this is a mix of styles. Some wheat, dark malts, banana, and dark fruit. Taste is more dopplebock than wheat but a nice version of one. Very malty with a hint of caramel. Even get a little light chocolate in the aftertaste. Relatively smooth. Pretty good. ehhdayton (1113), USA
