3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
12/03 0.5 l bottle back from trip to Graz. It poured hazy orange body with bigger head. Nice orange, banana, biscuit and caramel aroma. Quite cloying, like all Edelweiss beers. Sweetish wheat yeasty flavor, spicy, with distinct caramel and fine dried fruitiness. Alcohol is slightly felt, especially in its long, warming finish that pronounced the yeast and orange. Quite nice and complex weizenbock indeed. I’m glad this brew is been widespread in Austria now.

I was thrilled to find this with heavy at the SC Seiersberg Merkur Markt. This weizenbock poured a murky golden body with a big thick white head. Creamy sweetish nose dominated by banana, surrounded with lemon and dust. Slightly lighter lactic banana peel taste, kinda sweet. Light and pleasant with notes of bubblegum and glue as well. Generally slightly light but complex and a lovely example of one of my favorite styles!

Pours a cloudy golden hue with a foamy bleached white head. Typical Weizen aroma with an additional floral component. Alcohol is very well hidden. Quite the find for a 1 euro 500 mL Flasche at the local Spar Markt. Highly recommended.
