Appearance: Pours a hazy brown body with a thin, off-white head.
Smell: Rich malty aroma of caramel and dark brown sugar. Plenty of spice, bananas, and bubblegum, too. Actually, good gracious, is the bubblegum especially strong in the aroma.
Taste: The taste of sweet malted wheat and caramel, along with the light spicing and banana notes really give the impression of banana bread. Finishes relatively sweet, but with a slight sour note right on the tailend.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Mild carbonation. Fairly smooth mouthfeel.
Drinkability: A lovely weizen bock that would be even nicer served up in the cooler months.

Pours brown with some red and purple hues. No real head to speak of.
Very fruity aroma. Raisin and cherry cough syrup.
Flavors of banana, raisin, cherry, clove, and chocolate. Warm alcohol.
Fairly heavy palate. Not much carbonation.
Just kind of okay.
