UnholyBrewing (322), Melbourne, Australia Aug 5, 2008 ...bottle from Cloudwine. This stuff was very impressive. On the nose, has raisins, grape, plum dark fruit like aroma, with hints of spicy clove. Pours a dark browish red\purple, with an off white head that didn’t seem to last for me, but oh well. On the tongue, it massages the taste-buds with a wheaty, slightly caramelitic, fruity goodness, with hints of clove in the finish. Went down very well for such a high ABV, with almost no alcohol flavor. Not too heavy, with nice carbonation that distributes the many flavors. Very easy drinking, and I wish I had gotten two, or more. I definitely want to find this on tap, but doubt I can here in Melbourne. One of the best weizen bock’s I have had so far, and it seems hard to top. A must try for Weizen fans.
CaryTheDude (489), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Nov 28, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Smells like a cross between a quad and an imperial weizen. Complex as shit. Oh and tastes awesome. About as wheaty as a beer can get, but a nice complement of dark fruits makes this one excellent brew. Homer321 (120), Rockledge, Florida, USA Nov 20, 2008 Smells slightly metallic and slightly sweet smell as it warms. smooth, sweet, slightly milky taste that is very rich. A nice balance of wheat and fruitiness with darker ans sweeter flavors as it warms. A very nice beer. I only wish it were lower in alcohol so I could drink more! ericandersnavy (199), denton, Texas, USA Nov 20, 2008 bottle picked up at metzlers in denton, tx. poured a cloudy brown with an off white head. aroma of caramel, floral notes, spices, and fruits. flavor had some caramel, dry spice, and alcohol. overall i was not real impressed, maybe it was past its prime. will have to try again. moseslikesbeer (176), conestoga, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. aroma of spice, yeast and fruit. Flavor was sweet and mild and malty and just damn good! lol A nice smooth drinker this one is and will be having this again. oldrtybastrd (1793), Morlautern, Germany/Great Falls, Montana, USA Oct 30, 2008 Shared this one w/ SkyCop32. Picked up at Maruhn Getränke in Darmstadt, also picked up the authentic glassware pictured to the left. Pours a crisp cola brown color. Aromas of clove, banana, fruit, and alcohol. Flavor is alcoholic clove and spice with a bittersweet finish. Good beer!
