Braudog (3461), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Jan 12, 2008 Draft at the Gettysburg brewpub. Happy Birthday, honey! Ruddy red with a thin creamy off-white head. Lightly yeasty aroma which is a bit better pronounced in the first sip. Tad tangy with a twinkle of clovey spices and a sweet bready finish. (#3288, 1/11/2008) acrdz (4129), Pennsylvania, USA Nov 30, 2007 Draft pint at Appalachain in Harrisburg. Poured from the tap a very cloudy (muddy) brown with little to no head. Heavy on the candied banana, sharp alcohol, sharply astringent malts and soggy bread and toast notes up front, with a similar smell. The body on this completely falls apart over the middle, and it finishes with more simple candied banana flavors and a strikingly astringent grain husk note. The alcohol is far too apparent for something of this weight, and overall it’s just unappealing in all respects. Beerded_one (1551), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 17, 2007 On draft at capones. Pours a light copper color with a decent white head. Aroma of light caramel, malts, and a hint of molasses. Flavor is similar to aroma with a thin body stegosaurus (1883), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 17, 2007 On draft at Capones. Pours a translucent copper with a decent size off-white head. Aroma of caramel malts. The flavor is slightly sweet, caramel, not anything like a weizen bock should be for me. thin body, and weak. whaleman (2168), North Wales, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 8, 2007 Amber body with a thick, frothy off-white head. Aroma of bubble gum, light caramel, and cake. Lots of yeasty esters, some doughiness, plus honey, vanilla, and latex tones. Not bad after it sits a little.
