| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 15, 2007 500mL drank alone under a wind and rain storm at +1 Celsius in a graveyard on the Lofoten Islands at 4:30 a.m. Strong, everlasting off-white head covers the very dark brown to purple pour. Highly yeasty and in a rather dusty, stoney, jammy way. The wheat comes across quite grainy while the dark malts add a pretty much roasty kick akin to some of the most agreeable dunkelweizens. In mouth, this initially nameless roast develops further into chocolate chips suggestions and while it drinks very easily all along, a mellow and warming alcohol touch chimes in. Medium-bodied, natural medium-high carbonation that manages to slice through the sweetness, nicely drying out. I was quite surprised at the low scores as I found it very idiosyncratic and lovely myself, though the setup I drank it in was probably the most unusual of my young drinking career.

Jet black, fizzy head. Malty and marmitey aroma. Very fizzy in the mouth, hard to judge the real taste. After a few swirls, it’s got a full body - malty. This isn’t really a weizen, or a bock to my tastes. It may be slightly sickly sweet, but isn’t a 100% match for the bock style. Tranquillity (1167), Espoo, Finland
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Bottled at Pikkulintu, Helsinki. Christmassy, cucumber and cloves aroma. Almost black, very lively with a beige head. Bubbles a lot! Too much of the bubbles for my taste... Taste a bit of sweet...puke?? Chocolate? Too strange for me, and has nothing to do with the other weizenbocks I’ve tried. Enjoyit (1744), Vadum, Denmark

Very malty, both the aroma and taste, a lot of caramel, very sweet, but also some off-flavors due to the over fermentation. Uncontrolled. fonefan (11818), VestJylland, Denmark
