RichJ7 (1175), Cullman, Alabama, USA Feb 21, 2009 Cloudy brown pour with a half-inch white head. Bready, grainy malt aroma with a touch of clove.Sharp, tangy, earthy wheat flavor and a nice full body. Nice. mixinnixon2000 (227), Chicago, Illinois, USA Feb 17, 2009 Got this as West Lakeview chicago. the guy was there who made the beer. it was good. pours dark brown color. small white head. nice dark fruit flavors. vikingbeercbus (34), Columbus, Ohio, USA Feb 15, 2009 Bottle. Enjoy goofy hand-drawn cover art. Even more pleased with the beer itself. Malt aroma, cloves. Mahogany brown, quarter inch head. Thick palate, undertones of fruit. Strong brew, scored with my boyfriend after sharing this beer. Recommended, top notch for a macrobrewery. nickd717 (1276), Palo Alto, California, USA Feb 6, 2009 12oz bottle. Surprisingly righteous brew from some random guy in Illinois. Not bad, Rodney. Dark brown with a thin white head and medium-high carbonation. Aroma is phenolic with banana and some yeast. Tastes a little like a Belgian ale with dark fruit flavors, but also the banana/clove taste you expect from a weizenbock. Not too unlike Schneider Aventinus. Complex yet refreshing. Very drinkable. Can floor you before you know it. bozoNZ (481), Christchurch, New Zealand Jan 21, 2009 330ml bottle - ticks all the style guidelines boxes. Wonderful spicy rich vanilla aroma, light phenols. Murky brown to look at but wonderful mouthfeel. Sweet rich dark fruits, more vanilla and a touch milk chocolate. Lingers and warms with an almost sherry like finish. Superb. jthg (66), Austin, Texas, USA Jan 11, 2009 "I just love smelling it. I could smell it all day," my friend just remarked. And, for good reason. The beer has a delicious sweet bread aroma. And, then the beer backs up the aroma with an amazing smooth, but full body. Not much german yeast ester like banana. A little clove... maybe? Overall, a great easy drinking, full beer. Great for the cold days. Kevin (1917), Colorado, USA Jan 5, 2009 cloudt dark garnet bodywith a skin of grey for a head.dusty clove aroma with a ripe banana scent.apricot bubblegum flavor. nice banana yeasty goodness in the finish. a nice caramel toffee sweetness throughout this one that i like.
4 6 7 4 16 KawaBomber (193), New Jersey, USA Dec 31, 2008 12oz Bottle: Dark brown with a creamy khaki head. Aroma is of sweet malts and candied sugar with a hint of clove. Full bodied with bold spicy, yeasty flavors mixed with some banana, clove and roasted malts. Slightly grainly as well. Has a slight burn going down and a sweet finish. Honestly, I wasnt expecting it to be this good. Pleasant surprise for sure.
