Commercial Description:
Norwegian: Weizenbock er et øl med en svært kompleks, men likevel lett smak. Til å være et bokkøl har dette ølet i tillegg til sitt tydelige maltpreg også mye av hvetegjærens frukt og nelliksmak som kombinert gir en stor smaksopplevelse. Ølet tåler lang lagring og blir bare bedre med tiden, kan nytes til alle årstider. Passer utmerket også som juleøl.

English: This beer has a very complex, yet light taste. For a bock this beer combines maltiness with the fruity clove-like taste of weizen yeast for a great taste experience. The beer is suitable for long-term storage and improves with age. Can be enjoyed at any season, also as a Christmas beer. (Translated from the Norwegian.)

Bottle. Batch # 31. Very fizzy carbonation. Huge frothy tan head, mostly diminishing. Nice opaque dark brown body. Fresh fruity, mainly citrus, and sweet malty aromas. Notes of spices and yeast. Taste is sweetish; malts, candysugar, ripe banana, wheat and yeast. Some fresh acidic flavors in the aftertaste. Medium body. Oily mouthfeel. Long light bitter/acidic finish. Very tasty and highly refreshing.

500ml bottle (batch 31, bb. April ’09). Gives a shot and a good smoke when opened. The content tries to get out of the bottleneck on its own (so be sure to have a glass nearby). Huge, noisy brownish foam, quickly disappearing, but can be enjoyed every time you fill the glass. Aroma has got notes of spiciness, some wheat and dark malt. Sweet espresso taste with solid hints of aniseed. There is also riped fruity notes in the flavour. Moderate yeasty ending. The flavours are being blocked by the overcarbonation of the brew, but the taste comes through when the brew developes in the glass (12.11.2006).

Bottle from Vinmonopolet. Dark weizenbock. Very high carbonation- almost gushing out of the bottle. Powerful aroma and high drinkability. Chocolate in the finish and medium body. I’ll have another one...
