12oz bottle. Bottled in June 07, consumed in Feb 08. This has been one of my favourite beers for as long as I’ve liked good beer, and should have been rated long, long ago. Pours a murky brown. Has a wonderfully yeasty and wheaty aroma. The initial taste is strong, yeasty with a touch of sweetness. It goes down the throat beautifully, with a full wheaty aftertase. I’ve always felt this beer to be a weizenbock. I really should do a blind taste test with this one and Aventinus and pick my favourite..

Jul 22, 2008 Bottle. Says best before March 2009, so I’m guessing it’s a few years old. Pours unclear orange/brown with a beige head. Sweet malt aroma, with fruit, caramel, yeast and nutmeg. Soft, medium body, quite a bit of carbonation. Flavor is again sweet. Ir has a lot going on but it’s very well balanced. Fruity, yeasty, and spicy. Notes of apple, peach, caramel, clove, chestnut, and floral hops. Short, dry finish, with a touch of yeast and a very slight bitterness. Very nice. Very drinkable and very tasty.

Jul 22, 2008 (Canada) Pours a nice reddish brown color with a wonderful thick foamy white head. The aroma is of warm bread, spices and yeast. The taste is creamy with some slight caramel notes!! The finish has a strong yeast flavor, but still very drinkable.
