thejon375 (390), Tampa, Florida, USA Sep 23, 2009 Good weizen. Pours rich dark brown with medium white/tan head. Aromas and flavors of oatmeal raisin cookies. Little bit of yeast that adds a bready flavor. Overall a decent brew. Ron (1002), Rochester, New York, USA Sep 20, 2009 Bottle. Deep brownish copper in color with a little off white head. Malty caramel toffee aroma. Spicy notes. Sweet roasty and malty tasting. Alright. Medium bodied. Finish is roasted. Decent. jb (1024), Rochester, New York, USA Sep 18, 2009 Very large fluffy head, some retention, reddish brown. Unique aroma, gingerbread, spicy, a bit of sour yeastiness. Nice small bubbled carbonation tickles the tongue. Fruity palate, a bit of banana, more of the gingerbread. This is a very original product, I loved it. BeerGestapo (725), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 17, 2009 Brewed in Germany... Pours a reddish brown color with spritizy off white head. Aroma of wheat, bread, caramel and toffee. Taste is also of wheat and toffee, with some banana, spices and mild clove flavors. Mouthfeel is medium in body with some lively carbonation. This Weizenbock was very enjoyable, the alcohol was well hidden and i think this brew would be wonderful at an Oktoberfest. Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Sep 13, 2009 Dark brown colored with red hints, little yellow head. Fruity aroma with thin banana, some bubblegum also here. Medium to full bodied. Flavor is sweet also with banana dominating, grains and some rubbery note, aftertaste is yeasty with banana still lasting. TBone (6675), Pori, Finland Sep 12, 2009 Bottled (BB 05/2010, alc. 7.8%).
Dark ruby, small steady beige head. Banana, toffee, toasted aroma. Toasted banana, sweetness, yeast, some similarities to Aventinus, but a bit lighter. oh6gdx (8801), Vasa, Finland Sep 12, 2009 Bottled. Rubyish amber colouur, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is wheat, caramel, some spicy and mild notes of cheese. Flavour is caramel malts, some alcohol and rather spicy notes. 17thfloor (1403), Chicago, Illinois, USA Aug 19, 2009 500ml bottle shared with funkybrewster. Pours a slightly cloudy very dark red with a soda like tan fizzy head. Aroma of lots of wheat, some cola like sweetness, creamy banana. Flavor is quite round and sweet, distinctly creamy, cream of wheat and burnt sugars, tastes very similar to some of the weizen bock reduction glazes I’ve made, brown sugar, softer banana phenols play nicely off the alcohol, quicker finish. Sublimely rich without being overly sweet. Some tootsie-roll like chocolate appears as it warms, rich raisins and the finish definitely improves. Medium/full bodied, slightly syrupy but broken up but the corse larger sharp carbonation 3.5. Very drinkable and very good.
