Jan 25, 2008 Draft at Sweetwater Tavern, Merrifield, VA. Color amber. Aroma mild fruit. Taste: medium sweet, clove, fruit, perhaps citrus. Different tastes march along tongue from front to back, ending in zesty tingle that slowly drops off yet lingers. Very refreshing. Mouth feel soft. Great sipping alone and with light, sweet salad.

Dec 5, 2007 Took home a few growlers of this one. Smell is all banana and cloves. Pours with a nice head, but served a bit too cold on draft at Centreville location. Very spicy, but drinkable. Taste is more banana and cloves, a bit of wheat. Not hard to drink a growler’s worth in a given night.

May 2, 2007 On tap at the Sterling location on 1/21/07: Pours a hazy copper orange with a pillowy white lacy head. Has a sweet wheaty, banana estery aroma with nice German yeasty notes. Body has a full sweet wheatiness and good bready yeasty texture. A nice and authentic weizenbock with a peppery clove yeasty finish that hides the alcohol well.

Jun 30, 2006 ODBF 06 - Ultra hazy amber, creamy white head. Complex nose of pear, spices, banana, and caramel, with lighter bready and apple tones. Flavor matched almost exactly to the nose. Medium bodied, light carbonation, caramel and fruit finish. Very nice beer Nick. A shame the rest of the festival didn’t have intersting beers like this...
