Feb 21, 2005 Updated: Oct 18, 2005Not cloying in it’s sweetness as the other few weizen bocks I have tried. The head is large, tan colored and long lasting. Lots of bubbles in the body. The body is amber and slightly cloudy. The aroma is brown sugar, nuts with cherries, bananas and a cinnamon spice. This goes down with a thick mouthfeel. I am going to age a few. This si scary drinkable. Best by March 1, 2005.

Feb 20, 2005 bottle thanks to the_beer_god. pours deep amber. thin head, but lots of carbonation. thick sticky wheaty aroma, with some cloves and yeast and banana. despite the german-ness of the brew, it tastes rather belgian and spicy; acidic and bitter, which fit the style very appropriately. interesting to say the least!

Feb 15, 2005 Updated: Mar 2, 2005 This beer had a much lighter pour then I was expecting. It was an orange color instead of a brown color. The head was practically non-exisistent. Very interesting appearance. The smell was very peppery and spicy. There was citrus, orange, and caramel in the taste. The problems were that it was too sweet and too peppery. The alcohol is also a bit noticable. Still once again Victory has produced a very good beer. This is not there best beer in my opinion, but I am still impressed. The palate has a nice spicyness to it which works quite well.

Feb 9, 2005 Orange color, and a thick tan head. Sweet citrus scent, and a nice variety of spices in the flavor. An easy drinking beer, without being too thin.

Jan 28, 2005 Updated: Aug 11, 2005I’m enjoying this one. Brown bodied with an off-white head, this baby smells of sweet malts, grassiness, fruity yeasts, and spices. Caramel and mild citric flavors (mainly orange), pomes, and spices come across in the taste leaving you with a warm banana, spices, and alcohol finish. A dangerous brew, since I could easily put these away all night long. The 8.7% abv just hasn’t struck me yet. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?

Jan 25, 2005 Bottle. Premier Gourmet in Buffalo. Golden red brown body, fairly clear. Aroma is yeasty, but more of a Belgian like yeastiness than a wheat yeastiness. Sweet malt, touch of caramel, some alcohol as I swirl the glass. Flavour is not what I expected. Lots of sweet malt, some alcohol in the finish with very little wheaty flavours poking through. They start to come out more as it warms, but it is still more bock than weizen. Average medium bodied palate. Nice but unexciting. I had hoped for more.
