Style: Weizen Bock
Downingtown, Pennsylvania USA

Pours a copper color with a off white tan head with nice lacing. aroama is yeasty with bread, banana, fruit, and some carmel coming through. flavor is of wheat, banana, carmel, yeast, apricot, plum, and a little bubblegum. has a medium-full body with nice carbonation. overall, I enjoyed this one very much.

Pours a slight cloudy dark copper with a slightly off white head. Aroma is sweet of plum, fig, spice, banana, and some cherry. Flavor is fig, light cherry, spice, light raisin, and plum. Slightly sour, sweet, and bitter all in one. I could drink many of these all night. Interesting little mix of bock meets wheat beer. Very nice indeed.

Bottle from Stan at Lone Hill. Smells like an imperial US wheat ale - nothing particularly German in the nose. Color is a light brown. Flavor is wheat, flower, maybe some caramel malt, but doesn’t have that heady, sugary weizenbock sweetness. Decent.

Pours a coudy dark orange/amber color with golden orange hues when held to a light source and a massive frothy off white head that very slowly fades into a lasting cap. Yeasty aroma with lots of bread, sweet caramel/chocolate, ripe banana citrus peel and spicy clove. Heavily carbonated up front with a lot of zest clove spice followed by a full yeasty/bready body with plenty of ripe banan and citrus pell and a tart dry finish. Clove is prominent but the darker caramel/choclate malt notes as well as the citrus and banana notes balance things out very nicely. The slight tart finish is what really separates this beer and makes it very flavorful. It lingers after the end of each sip and leaves me salivating for more. I have to stop myself from pounding this so I can fully enjoy it.

pours out dark honey gold with a tall bubbly beige head. the body is a cloudy amber with a good amount of bubbles rising in the center of the glass. the aromas are spicy and fruity. there is some yeast also present, but is really pungent with fruits and some lightly roasted malts. it is light bodied and a little over carbonated on the tongue. it is a little sweet and "wheaty", like some sugar coated grain cereal. it is also a little malty and some alcohol is present. theres some bitterness, but not from the hops. there is also some fruits present on the tongue. the aftertaste is not really that good and leaves a weird taste in the back of my mouth. finishes a little watery and quite refreshing.

This one smells (and looks) like something from Hair of the Dog - lovely. Lots of malt, caramel and very ripe fruit. Not nearly as thick as something like Doggie Claws, but it has a similar flavor - just a bit more hops, and thinner / more effervescent. Aroma is wonderful, but the flavor leaves something to be desired. It’s a decent bock, and with some of the carbonation swirled out it’s actually really nice. Certainly glad I tried it.

12oz bottle. Hazy dark orange with a medium off-white head. The aroma displays a lot of weizen yeast character, with lots of clove and banana. The flavor also has plenty of banana, clove to a lesser extent and a caramel-sweet malt flavor. Medium bodied with higher carbonation. Sweet and yeast overall. OK, but just not quite all there compared to some of the better ones.

Pours dark orange with a frothy off-white head. Aroma is yeasty with vanilla and bananas, sort of smoothie-like. Flavor is similar with wheat bread, bananas, cloves, caramel, and a slight bitterness. Carbonation is high, mouthfeel is soft and smooth. Very drinkable for the abv, you wouldn’t know it was almost 9%.
