Sep 27, 2007 Dark pour, dunkel-brown that lightens around the edges, creamy tan head. Foam lingers and fades out a bit, needs a little agitation to wake up. Nose is clovey with banana bubble gum and raisiny sugar. Fruity entry continues with the bouquet and coats the palate in a sweet alcoholic manner. The wheat malt and abv. are balanced with each other. However, the dirth of bubbles does not keep this lite on it’s feet. In fact it moves from velvety to heavy. All in all a nice execution of the style, certainly not a classic, but tasty and after the second one you forget a little about style.

Sep 23, 2007 Ten percent ABV is a stumbling block to taste... we shall "sea"...pours a thick brown, unfiltered with a short head in a weizenbock glass...chips of sediment apparent in the lower glass...a bit of carbonation with consistent lacing....malt and bready yeast aromas--more bock than weizen...when chewed, burrows into the lower back of the tongue--a bit of alcoholic burn too, aggressive at the top of tongue...a nice mixture of heavy malt sweetness and yeast...provides a punch and a thirst-quenching cool at the same time...the alcohol may be a slight turn-off..okay, it is...the beer challenges a neophyte beer rater--the style itself is unique...I find this batch of C.C. brew reviews in general to hit on the theme of malt and alcohol...another beer I would drink again, if not recommend for a discussion starter

Sep 23, 2007 Dark red pour with some fluffy head but no lacing. Strong aroma of banana. Flavor is complex and rich, very sweet with little hoppiness noticeable. The high alcohol is well hidden. Very thick and sticky on the palate.

Sep 23, 2007 Good tasting wheat beer. The aroma and taste of different fruits makes this beer a great experience.

Sep 22, 2007 Dirty crimson pour with a sticky cap. The nose is really wheaty with additional notes of apple cider, cherries, caramel and flowery hops. Heavy and full bodied with adequate carbonation. Lots more wheat here, with malty notes of brown sugar, toffe and dough. The yeast seems lacking though. Sugary sweet finish. Ultimately, this lacks complexity.
