Commercial Description:
This dark amber wheat beer features fruity and spicy aromas galore. Significant strength underlies the pleasant citric appeal of this bock beer. Redolent with the flavors of harvest fruit, Moonglow typifies the traditional weizenbock-style so thoroughly enjoyed throughout Bavaria. Left unfiltered, its unique yeast strain gives Moonglow a radiance all its own.

11/08/2007: Victory Moonglow Weizen Bock looks thick! It is a cloudy caramel/golden orange color with a big, foamy ivory-colored head that has a reserve cascading effect after the initial pour and then lasts for the entire session. It also creates thick foamy lacing throughout. There is active carbonation, but due to the medium-full body of this beer, it still feels slightly chewy in the mouth. Strong banana, caramelized malts, and clove spice are present in the aroma. The strong flavor has caramel malts, wheat, and some alcohol that cuts through at times. This is a very good weizen bock!

This is my second beer from Victory. I was amazed by this beer as well. Great flavor! Kind of sweet but with a afterbite. The alcohol is well hidden for the amount.

Dark really cloudy pour. A bit thick. Aroma is some spice and caramel and brown sugar sweetness. Flavor is pretty good. Heavy body and rich spices. A bit too much for me on the spice.

Thanks ogglethorp. Pours a murky orange with a large off-white head. My glass has a bit of trouble containing it. Nice lace. Aroma has clove followed by caramel, quickly fading. Flavor initially erupts in a really nice clove-alcohol-orange burst, the back end is less pleasant, a bit cloying, and the wheat gets husky. Warm and effervescent on the palate. Medium to full bodied.

Pours a very cloudy orange with a thick foam head. Aroma is very fruity, much more on the dark fruit (plums) along with apples and oranges, than the bananas of a lighter weizen, with the usual spicy aromas of a good German hefe as well. Flavor starts out sweet, on plums again, then turns brighter and a bit citrusy. Palate is overcarbonated, bordering on harsh; it really detracts from the flavor. However, this is still a very nice brew, and one that I would drink a lot of if I could get it locally.

well lets just say i thought this was good . I mean it had spice and flavor. It did not hold back on that shit. It was a good winter beer, althought it had that crappy aftertaste that accompanies many lager imo.

Bottle. Pours cloudy amber, small head. The usual banana fruit nose for a hef. Sweet malt with a caramelized pear flavor and a nice warmth.
