Ungstrup (11385), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 20, 2006 A hazy dark red beer with a thin brown head, that disappears very fast, neather the clarity nor the poor head looks like a Weizen Bock. The aroma is sweet and very fruity, but also with notes of alcohol and hints of spices. The flavor is very sweet, but also very complex, with notes of sirup, over ripe fruits, nuts, berries, and hints of spices, as well as a note of alcohol, that hits quite late on the palate. More like a Doppelbock than a Weizen Bock omhper (10728), Stockholm, Sweden May 21, 2006 [Cask at Købehavnske Øldage] Cloudy dark brown. Evident banana and estery band-aid aroma. Sweet and rather potent. Lightly roasty with firm mouthfeel. Low bitterness. Provides what I expect from a weizenbock. Papsoe (10551), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 12, 2006 (Bottle 50 cl) Slightly hazy mahogany with a small, bubbly, dissipating off-white head. Rich aroma of sweetish, dried fruit. Very full body with very sweet, malty accents - roasted malt and caramel and perhaps a wee whiff of yeast. Very discreet bitterness. Very delicate. 111006 yespr (6943), Copenhagen O, Denmark May 15, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a lacing tan head. Aroma is sweet and fruity with a light wheaty-mouldy note. Flavour has a distinct sweet alchol driven wheat flavour, dense/solid towards full bodied. Classic Wintercoat smoked note appearing after this and into the finish. Nice initially but goes cloying on a full bottle (which I couldn’t complete). joergen (6529), Frederiksberg, Denmark Sep 13, 2006 Bottle.
Cloudy red brown coloured with a fast disappearing beige head.
Sweet aroma of malts and caramel with notes of bananas.
Flavour of malts, caramel, bananas and alcohol with roasted notes.
An OK weizen bock, but the alcohol is too dominating.
