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.

Sweet malty brew with a strong rich flavor and a very pleasant aftertaste that’s not too bitter. Beautiful color and aroma that pours a nice but not exceptional head.

16oz bottle. Poured into a Stein. Dark mahogany colo with a big puffy head. Nose of raisins, bananna, clove, some underlying citrus and caramel. Taste is strong on bananna and clove but the warmer this beer gets the more the crazy complexity comes out. Cherries, chocolate, caramel, toffee all come through. A complex, smooth, full-bodied and incredibly tasty brew. Awesome.

My favorite german beer without a doubt. I prefer American Wheat to German Hefe & Weisse beers...but I absolutely love this beer. I have yet to have a Weizen Bock that is better. You will love the mixture of wheat and caramel/scotch malt flavors mixed with chocolatey prune boldness. Just amazing...try one today!

Cloves and pepper with a slight amount of bannana on the nose. Taste was one of raisons and a slight choc/toffee flavour, this kept developing as the beers temperature changed until fruity bannana became evident in the taste as well as aroma.

Colore marrone scuro(scurissimo!).Schiuma cremosa e aderente ,frizzante e leggermente densa, buona persistenza.Ricco e speziato l’aroma. Gusto tostato e leggermente amaro. Finale lungo e piacevole. Notevole tenore alcolico, molto equilibrata. E piacevole da bere...e ri-bere!

Bottle. To begin with, the beer has a nice dark brown cloudy color. Smells much yeast and spices. The taste is quite rich and thick. The classic taste of banana is there, but not as significantly as in other wheat beer. Spices, a pleasant sweetness. Some hints of raisin, plum and black currant. Easy to drink despite its 8.2%. A wonderful beer in all ways, well-balanced. After-taste is pleasant with clear elements of yeast and blackcurrants.

A cloudy dark brown beer with a nice looking 3 finger head. Aroma was spicy & complex almost like spicecake. Taste was banana, chocolate, spicy, & bready with a cake like taste, & undertones of wheat. This beer really looks good in the glass & dazzles with a lot of carbonation activity. I do not know that much about bocks but this is my favorite, & probably one of the best in the world.
