Commercial Description:
The grandfather of weizen beers, this full-bodied ale is made with 45% wheat, which contributes a slightly fruity, malt flavor. Flavor is dominated by the bready malt character and the expected banana and clove flavors from the yeast.

On tap at the Media location. Pours a slightly hazy orange amber with a small white head. Aroma of banana, clove, wheat, citrus and some caramel. Great up front aroma, a lot going on. Flavors of the same, goes down very smoothly. Picked up a growler of this to share at our weekly after work tasting, sitting in my fridge as I write this...tempting me to open it.

Draft @ North Wales - listed as Hercules - Cloudy and brown with a decent size beige head. Aroma is very sweet with some caramel, banana, spices and sweet, yet powerful bready malts. Taste is a full-bodied mix of bready-wheat malts, sweet bananas, dried cherries. Smooth, yet bold. I’m gonna have to put this up against my previous favorite American W-Bock from Ramstein and see which one wins........

Poured a hazy brown color with a thin, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of bananas, citrus, berries, nuts, and caramel malt. Taste of more caramel malt, light smoke, nuts, tart citrus, light wheat, wood, banana, and light spices, such as cinnamon. Faint hoppiness in the background.

Draft at P-ville. Pours hazy muddy dark brownish with minimal khaki head. Aroma of banana, brown sugary malts, some spicy clovey hints, and some figs, raisins, and toffee. Medium palate, with a high complexity, and flavors of brown sugar, figs, molasses, caramel malt, banana, clove, and Bazooka gum. A nice style.
