Commercial Description:
Dark ruby, glistening mysteriously, streaked with fine, top-fermented yeast, this beer has a compact, stable and long-lasting head. It has an intensive, typically top-fermented clove-like aroma. The palate experiences a gentle touch, on the tongue it is very full-bodied, compact and yet fresh with a hint of caramel. It finishes with a light and delicate taste of bitters leaving behind a strong, smoothly rounded, sour impression.

Cloudy brownish-red pour with a thick tan head. Nice aroma on banana, clove, and sweet malt. Sweet taste, banana and cloves, with sweet cocoa malt taste. Nice mellow balance taste between the the flavors-Alcohol isn’t noticeable. Nice aftertaste. Nice lacing on the glass.

A nice deep mahogany brown beer with a small off-whitish head that quits quick. Nose is spicy, with some dried fruit and a bit boozy. Flavor is complex, a lot of dark fruit, dried fruit, spice, a belgian yeasty flavor, and tart. Really delicious chewy mouthfeel. I’m no expert in wheats, or weizen bocks, but this seems to me like a belgian dubbel, I’m surprised it has wheat in it. Good beer!

Best Weizen Bock ever for sure. Pours a deep amber orange with a nice head of off white bubbles. Aromas of malt, clove, and soft banana. Clean malty slight-citrus flavor hits the tongue with a perfect amount of carbonation before giving way to caramel, banana, apricot, and hard candy. Then a clove like hop finish before going away leaving the palate awake and wanting more. World Class!

I can’t believe I’ve waited this long to try this one. One of my new favorites. I’m kicking myself now for stupidly pouring this into a pint glass. I would have enjoyed that massive head of foam much more in a glass like the one pictured here. I don’t have to describe the appearance, just look at the picture. Stunning. The aroma is complex with raisins, plums, banana, prunes, clove and other spices. A bit salty. The taste is equally complex with prunes, plums, raisins, and a wonderful spicy character thats by far the best in any weizen bock I’ve had. It ends on a wheat note with mild bitterness. Its medium bodied and goes down very easily. A great summer brew that is light, but massively tasty!

bottle: pours cloudy dark red/brown with thick white head. Yeasty-wheaty nose. Sweet, malty taste with nice alcohol bite at the end. Overtones of charcoal and chocolate. Light body and medium carb. I’m just not tasting the banana, but still a good brew.

cloudy brown with sediment, lovely thick super smooth large offwhite head. fruity, peach, faint dark fruits in the aroma, well balanced. almost resembling belgian stuff. flavori is peachy, yellow fruity, dark fruits, strong flavor but not alcoholic, sicy as it gets warmer.

Pours an opaque brown with a big, thick off white head. Really great aroma of bananas, clove, wheat. A bit of tobacco like clove cigarettes, A light smoke and fruity sourness. Flavor is clove and cinamon, carmel. Medium body with soft carbonation, dry finish. Basically all you could want in a wheat beer.
