On tap at Arundel Mills. Mahogany body with small light brown head. Aroma is lightly sweet and dominated by the banana, while the flavor seems to highlight the clove. Alcohol is a bit noticeable in the finish.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Very little head, complex flavor with alcohol content that slightly pops out. Clear banana taste in this great looking brew. Better than average Weizenbock for a limited time only.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Murky darek brown with a very small draft head. The aroma is nutty wheat lots of esthery banana and some spicy clove. The flavor is a big wallop of esthery banana-clove mix, dark sugars take over making for a sweet experience. Medium full body soft palate. A fairly quaffable weizen bock but not a real standout in the field.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Cloudy copper appearance with a large white head and good lacing. Typical yeasty hefeweisen aroma dominated by banana and clove. Taste was malty, soft fruits, mildly spiced with some sweetness. Smooth, medium-bodied, moderately carbonated mouthfeel. Long lasting finish with an earthy edge.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Growler filled at Bowie location. Attractive cloudy golden brown appearance; pours a significant fluffy head that soon fades away. Enormous amounts of wheat and cloves in the nose, almost buttery. Full mouthfeel; cloves dominate, with plenty of sugars and bananas and esters filling things out. Alcohol makes a slight appearance in a medium toasty finish. Very good weizenbock. I didn’t catch any of Cobra’s vinegary qualities.
