Bottle at RBJG#2 - Grand Tasting Tim’s Place. Cloudy yellow - white head. Wheaty, acid, banana, lots of banana, flowery notes, some light bitterness, cereals, grainy.

My Bottom Line:
Cloves, bananas and herbal hops coexist harmoniously in this chewy, bitter Heller Weizenbock.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam tops the cloudy pale blond.
-Carbonation is soft and feels natural.
-Mouthfeel is lean and very drinkable for a brew this gravity.
-This is on the hoppy side for a Weizenbock.
