Capital Weizen Doppelbock

I have never had anything like this before. Taste like weizen with the feel and kick of doppelbock.This is one of my favorite summer brews.It is nice to have a refreshing and highly alcohic beer.

Hazy, cloudy dark gold with a peachy tone in color, thin white head of tight foam, faded fast, leaves some stringy lace. Smell is faintly sweet, a bit of wheat, lemon, orange, and peach with a light touch of spice. Taste is great of lemon and orange and incredibly thick and chewy, excellent sweet tartness and citrusy sourness, solid sweet wheat, but all mellowed down and easy to handle. Feel is pretty full and has a very nice creamy smoothness with a slight tart hold in the middle and then has this strange little sourness left on the lips like I had just bit into a orange with the peel still on.

Pours with an attractice creamy froth white foam. The aroma brings to mind pineapples and caramel, yeasty fruitiness, peach, dough, and alcohol. Like alcohol soaked fruit. Very smooth and soft palate leads you to believe this will be easy to slam. However, the rich flavors of sweet bread, caramel, cocoa, and fruity Belgian yeast notes force you savor each ounce. This is also turning slightly acidic. The soft finish provides lingering Munich malt, peach, brown sugar, subtle banana, and notable traces of alcohol. A nice rendition of this rare style.

This one was also great. I love this brewery more with every beer. Beautiful thick head with an almost candy like aroma. The flavor was on par with any of the other weizen doppelbock i have had. highly recommend.

Sampled a vintage 2001 bottle. Malty clean aroma with a clear golden color. Muted weizen character with a small amount of wheat grainyness. Well balanced and malty. Alcohol not detected. Big creamy mouth feel. This beer has aged well and it a pleasure to drink. One of the better Capital Brewery beers. A defenite must try if you like big German style lagers.
