KyotoLefty (1371), Kyoto, Japan Aug 27, 2008 500ml bottle. Beautifully cloudy reddish brown with a nice fine head. Big aroma of wheat malt: bananas and cloves, with a touch of dark fruit. Big, complex malt flavor, with lots of everything: bananas, figs, cloves, and a touch of chocolate and caramel even. Just enough sour in the finish to keep it from going over the top. Great full body. This is the weizen bock that sets the standards. Was even better at the brewery on tap. danielyabu (269), União da Vitória, Brazil Aug 27, 2008 ssa super conceituada Weizen Bock é, de longe a melhor dos produtos Schneider & Sons. Logo de cara, ao despeja-la no copo Weizen, já se nota que não é uma cerveja qualquer. A aparência inicial de sua espuma é grande, coloração marrom-claro e excelente formação de colarinho, este bem duradouro. Seu corpo é lodoso, com partículas de grossa densidade e tonalidade caramelo (4/5). O aroma é o clássico do estilo: banana, banana-passa e cravo; há, ainda, lufadas de baunilha (7/10). O sabor também está acima da média: o saboroso gole inicial é levemente doce e ácido, sensação que apresenta leve doçura e amargor no final, de duração média - do início ao fim percebe-se a presença de notas amadeiradas. O paladar apresenta como componentes um corpo médio, de textura cremosa, carbonatação bem gasosa e final levemente alcoólico (3/5). BeerHawk (1175), Huntsville, Alabama, USA Aug 26, 2008 Bottle. Gusher!! Popped the top on this one, turned my back for a split second to grab a glass and as I returned it was spewing out the top. Dark brown once I got it in the glass with a fizzy tan head that settled out quick. Dark fruits (raisin & prune) in the aroma with molasses and light alcohol also noted. As it warmed some spices and banana also came out in the aroma. Dark fruits and malts in the flavor. Also some clove and slight smoke in the flavor. Full body that is bitter in the beginning but ends sweet. Tingly carbonation and a slight warming feeling. Furseth (1328), Kungälv, Sweden Aug 25, 2008 Bottle,Thanx to ekstedt.

IlanMan (816), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Aug 22, 2008 Pour is dark golden/brown with a fizzy head. Aroma is real fruity with a lot of yeast. Flavors include more fruit, sweet wheat, more yeast, and finished with caramel malt. Another damn good brew. Would buy again. tlind2 (560), Helsinki, Finland Aug 22, 2008 500 ml bottle. Deep murky brown color, tan head. Yeasty aroma with lots of banana. More banana in the flavor, as well as wheat and notes of alcohol. High carbonation, full body. I may have to re-rate this later, because right now I don’t see the reason for its popularity. bigtaster (184), Grand Rapids, USA Aug 21, 2008 500ml bottle in weizen. Large milky tan head lasting like frosting on a cake. Murky toffee colored body ... head just wont go away ...
Yeasty aroma with some nice toasted malt smells of molasses. Fruity notes hit immediately with a more robust sweetness taking over from there. Orange, currents, some others. Slightly bitter finish. A bit too sweet for my taste, but complex and beautiful.
