Nut brown and hazy. Acidic and fresh with nice butterscotch aroma. A great weizenbock!

Sampled at brewery. Color of muddy water - half a week or so of additional lagering would not have hurt, bad head retention. Nice banana and clove with a good full body. Not quite up to par with the weizenbocks I have become used to here in Bavaria, but not bad either.

Nice nose, great grain taste, chill hazes and aromatic. Decent hop presence, and a pleasant aftertaste, a must try for Wheat beer lovers.

Very hazy amber colour with a thin tan head. Potent aroma of bananas, cloves and yeast. Medium to Light-bodied; Strong malty flavour with the added aformentioned sweetness. Aftertaste shows a lot of spiceyness: cloves, coriander seed and nutmeg. Overall, a nice weizen bock from the Mid-Atlantic! I had this on draught at the Pizza Plant in Buffalo, New York.

The recently released 04 version of this seasonal brew has been kicked up to 8% abv. An unfiltered copper appearance with an average size head offered up the fruity banana esters of a typical hefe, complimented by a malty, earthy aroma. Nicely carbonated, with a smooth, medium-to-full bodied flavor with a long, slightly sweet, fruity finish. A worthy alternative to the proliferation of octoberfests around this time of year.

Hazy light brown color with a very small head. Aroma of banana, and clove. Malty flavors accompanied by the banana and some spiciness. A decent offering.

Sampled at the brewery--good head over hazy light brown body. Fine, full mouthfeel with flavors of banana, clove and spice in huge quantities. I don’t perceive some of the bubblegum flavors I’ve detected in previous years nor the piercing fruitiness I’ve had in the past for this one. Still, very nice.

This I liked, but maybe too much alcohol. After a day of tasting I bumped into this. Slight fruity nose along with nice malting. Spicy finish. A tad too heavy on the carbonation (a critique, not a complaint).
