jaghana (7774) - Strasbourg (Alsace), FRANCE - SEP 23, 2014Bottle 75cl kindly given by Quack-Duck. A cloudy brown beer without head, nose is lemony and grapefruit like ! Aroma is sour, lot of grapefruit, lactic profile, yeast notes, not clean, is that wanted or infected ? Body is sweet, green apple and lemon notes, no relation at all to a weizenbock. Finish is astringent and sour.
MoritzF (10604) - Ottobrunn, GERMANY - FEB 27, 2014(bottle, 75cl, thanks to Quack-Duck) Hazy, deep amber to brown colour with a short and tanned foamy layer. Slightly toasted malty aroma with almost vinous fruity notes of citrus, tangerine, fruit-confit, accompanied by caramel and chocolate. Sweet and delicately bitter flavour, medium to full bodied with a well-matured carbonation. Smooth dark malt character with shades of wheat, fruit confit, nutty spots. As well as traces of chocolate and honey; lingering and balanced sweet-bitter, slightly vinous fruity finish with a warming alcoholic strength. Very rounded Weizenbock/Old Ale hybrid. 12.II.14

Superb and complex stuff…
kappldav123 (8891) - Nordhausen, GERMANY - DEC 29, 2013Big thanks to quack-duck for that interesting bottle. Looks really, really good. Beer in the glass darker than exspected, nice head. Malty sourish aroma. Starts quite strong, malty, only light yeasty notes. Quite sourish background with some hints of chocolate. Also some fruity-berry hints. Finish less malty, more sourish. Finish a bit earthy-woody. Very interesting beer.
