Bomber: Pours a clear dark orange with a very small off-white head, huge clove and banana aroma with some lemon and bubblegum. Starts and ends sweet with a long fruity aftertaste, full bodied with a syrupy mouthfeel and mild carbonation.

22 oz bottle courtesy of mcox90. Pour is orange golden brown. A bit hazed, smallish off white head. Aroma of strong honey sweetness, floral grassiness. Taste is fruity banana with a the bright citrus honey sweetness. Nice syrupy medium body. Nice one, thanks Michael.

2008 Flour City Brewfest. I really enjoyed this one. Aroma is sweet with a light smoke and some mild spices. Taste is sweet, sugary and also some spices. Very enjoyable and easy to drink. Well balanced and well made.

Pours a reddish orange color with a thin white head. The aroma has bananas and sweetness. Flavor of bananas, sweetness and some wheat. The body is light to medium with an oily texture and gentle carbonation. This is true to the 100 Barrel Series, which is not a compliment.

From bottle. Raw wort with light caramel. Bit of vanilla and some light fruity hops. Touch of oaky character. Radiant golden amber, dark with thin off-white lacing head. Medium heavy watery body with medium carbonation. Smooth with alcohol warming. Starts sweet with smooth raisin, oak, and vanilla. Warming plum and brown sugar. Light neutral bitterness at the finish with smooth after. Nice quaff but not what I’d call a typical Weizenbock.
