Dec 17, 2008 330ml bottle - - Alko
Banana and hoppy aroma. Massive kick of hops in the mouth, and a fair burn of alcohol. A touch rough, but not that objectionable - it certainly warms on you. Warms in you too. I am hoping this will soften a bit with age, as the alcohol is too prominent currently. The malts and yeast need to turn fruitier and port-winey.

Dec 16, 2008 Dark ruby with a large, fizzy near-white head. Nose of banana, spice, and an odd, off-putting cream. Warming alcohol comes out a little in the spicy flavor, some sugar adding to the already sweet Belgian flavor. Relatively carbonated for the medium body and a little too sticky for my preferences. Nice beer, but I think the best qualities here are found in greater abundance elsewhere.

Dec 15, 2008 Dark brown color, thin beige head. Aroma of fruit,yeast,and malt. Alcoholic overtones with a syrupy mouth feel. Sweet taste of raisins, plums, and toffee. Finishes with a long sweet balance of alcohol and raisins.

Dec 14, 2008 From bottle at the Weisse Brauhaus. Dark brown cloudy body with a off-white puffy head that lasts forever and leaves a heavy lacing. Plum, raisins, clove and cinnamon in a powerful nose with heavy esters. Highly complex in mouth with ripped banana, chocolate, dark cherries, plum hitting at some part or another. Port-like palate with a nice alcohol content and a sirrupy finish lighted by a subtle carbonation. Impressive beer but it is not an improvement over the normal weizenbock Aventinus.

Dec 10, 2008 smells really strongly of alcohol and a tiny bit like raisins. it fizzes alot like cocacola and even looks like it. it tastes like alcohol and heavy heavy raisin, dates etc.. and alot of candied sugar. the alcohol taste is in fact a nice bonus for me, but i can see how alot of people would hate it. its got a good mouthfeel, and oh man halfway through the bottle i can already really feel it hitting me. this is a pretty cool beer, didnt quite live up to its reputation, but almost, and the price per alcohol is pretty kick ass when you factor in the fact that it also tastes really good.
