Nov 10, 2003 An ok amber-colored beer. It reminded me of a barleywine for some reason.

Nov 9, 2003 Pours a lovely deep ruby color with a small tan head. Nose is malted with a nice hop accent to it. The taste is spice with more hop character. The spice seems muddled. Can't seem to nail it down. There's cinnamon or nutmeg and maybe a caramel note or two. Spiced and bitter mouthfeel and finish. Decent beer but nothing I'll drink a lot of at any point in time.

Nov 8, 2003 Ok pours a nice clear brown with garnet accents..lovelly tan head .goes fast to leave gorgeous lacing lovelly looking ale.
Great scent to the beer spice and caramel malts..fresh.
Good taste also..starts with fresh malty sweetness followed by lemony citrus flavour,,and a spruce like briskness..bitter hop finish.
pretty good on the palate not too heavy.
I liked this beer a lot..had it last year..this is better..good attempt at a rare style.

Nov 5, 2003 2003. Fluffy light tan head atop a clear brown body. Rye bread, yeast(lightly moldy), caramel, cloves, and orange zest in the aroma. Sweeter start and metalic finish. This is more in the style of Burgerbrau Fest. Lacks body and feel, but the flavors are there. Finish is bitter and biting. Middle flavors are quite nice with caramel, light citrus, mild light fruits and touch of juniper berries. Very good effort.

Oct 5, 2003 Caramel and citrus combined, darker amber color. Finish is kind of sweet, interesting seasonal.

Jun 12, 2003 Similar in production to other brews by this brewery. Very rough bockish malts like graded sand paper.

Jun 12, 2003 Nothing like a Winter seasonal in June! Hints of vanilla are faint and normal characteristics of wheat beer is also faint. A terribly strong malt taste that took some points off from me. Not sweet malts, but stronger more biting malts that just don't go down as easy.

Apr 22, 2003 A zesty WeizenBock that beats out Hopf Weisser Bock in a head-to-head tasteoff. Milder and maltier with some sourness and sweetness. Kudos to this brewery, which I truly respect, for pulling off a difficult and rarely-imitated style. Slightly sour and very nice!
