Bottle courtesy of The_Epeeist: Pours a hazy copper amber with a nicely-lacing froth of white head. Sweet caramel and bready German yeasty nose has a good clove presence and some banana esters. Body starts fairly full and rich with good malty wheat sweetness and nice balance of clove spice and light citrus before an authentic bready yeasty finish. A very nice weizenbock.

12oz bottle (thanks Tom for brining these back for me!). Poured a deeper and cloudy brownish color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of cloves, bananas, yeast, wheat, and more spices. Tastes of spices, lighter bananas, bread, and yeast.
