Commercial Description:
Copper Kettle Weiss is designed in the traditional style of a dark wheat beer. Rich malt flavors are accentuated through our complicated decoction mash and finally balanced with select Hallertau hops.

On tap and 12 oz. bottle. Beautiful copper color. Head is smaller and light tan. Aroma has wheat, banana and hop. Slight metallic note (from the copper vessels) Flavor is includes spicy notes (clove?), wheat and carmel malt character. But also a toasted finish. Has very unique character all it’s own. NGB, please bring this back in 08.

7-3-08 bottle shared with lb4lb thanks to IowaHerkeye (thanks Joey)
Semi clear amber. Smell is sour and funky. Flavor is funky dough that has a strange sweetness here. High carbonation in the body. Overall, not the biggest fan of this one.

Bottle in trade from IowaHerkeye. Thanks!
Pours amber with tons of floaties suspended throughout the beer. Fizzy white head. Smell is bright and off, like the beginning of an infection, perhaps. Otherwise, caramel and some wheat. Taste is oxidized, metallic and caramelly wheat. Overly fizzy body. Not very good.

About a 1 inch thick head of medium sized bubbles. Interesting aroma with some oranges, cauliflower, wheat and corn. Some sweet malts also. Color is a cloudy dark orange. Lively in the mouth with some roasty notes. Sweet malts and some grainy feeling on the palate. More vegetal notes. Finishes sweet malty and a bit dry. I am indifferent to this brew.

Pours with a cloudy, amber body topped by a thick, off-white head with some lacing left behind. The flavor and aroma are subtle with sweet, malty notes and a hint of banana yeast notes. Not much else to it. Light to medium bodied and smooth.
