Commercial Description:
This time the Otter is going to Germany, with "Otterbahn," a weizenbock, set for May release. "Otterbahn" is a unique combination of a hefeweizen (unfiltered wheat beer), and a bock (robust malty ale). The wheat adds a citrus like flavor and light body, the unique yeast strain produces clove like character and banana esters. The addition of toasted malts adds even more complexity to this already full-flavored style. As they say in Germany- prosit!

Bottle sampled with Beerded_one. Pours dark brown with a one finger thick off-white head. Aroma of banana, roasted malts, and caramel (awesome nose). The flavor doesn’t resemble a weizenbock at all, coffee, roasted malts, banana, bitter hops, nuts, and slightly metallic(would have made a better porter). Good body, drinkable.

Not much aroma but a little bit of metallic banana and coffee. The flavor is the same as the aroma. Slightly too much carbonation. Very short, slightly malty, fizzy finish.

Brown body with a moderate and rapidly diminishing fizzy head. No lacing on the glass. Aroma is mostly caramelized bananas. Also got bread and chocolate notes. Unfortunately, this beer had the ’Otter Creek’ flavor. Somewhat watery texture, but was medium bodied. At least this one has potential, the Cacao one was horrible.

Dark chestnut color, collapsing beige head. Excellent aroma of caramel, almonds, overripe bananas, hint of spices. Medium-full body, lush carbonation, creamy. Flavors of caramel covered almonds, slight roast, banana esters and more. Rich and integrated flavors, outstanding malt profile. Warming, hint of sour yeast and finishing a bit dry. Very good brew.

This offering from Otter Creek pours a dark plum with a lite maroon bottom that leaves a thin tan head that disappears quickly. The aroma is sweet dark fruits, plum and figs, banana,caramel, fresh herbs, and nutmeg. The taste starts much like the nose sweet caramel, dark malt, wheat, lemon, banana that has a refreshing burst of carbonation that is followed by a bready syrup mouthfeel that has bit of alcohal in the finish. This is a fantstic brew, glad I punched a ticket for the Otter Creek World Tour.
