| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jan 19, 2008 Tap at Fridays. Poured dark amber with small off white that didn’t last. Light aroma of malt. Light malt flavor that finished rather harsh. I had this before and I don’t remember the alcohol being that harsh. Shane087 (26), Jacksonville, Florida, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 17, 2008 Updated: Dec 14, 2008Good looking beer, poured a frothy half inch head that dissipated quickly but left good lacing. Noticed an aroma of hops as well as a satisfying malt aroma. Spices and hops balance the sweetness of the toasted malts, but malts win out in a sweetish finish. All in all, a very enjoyable beer for the season. Brewbie (220), New York, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 14, 2008 Clear copper pour with a big offwhite head. Smell is tart malt with spices, and I got no wheat from it. Taste is spiced like an english strong ale. Perhaps some biscuity notes. I didn’t see this as a weizen bock at all, but still enjoyed the beer. To me this was a classic example of a good Christmas beer. Worth trying and I seemed to have enjoyed it more than my rating indicates. ratman197 (3182), Arvada, Colorado, USA

Aromas of carmel, spice and a hint of fruittiness. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of burnt carmel, light spice and a hint of dark fruit with a smooth dry moderatly bitter finish.
