Bottle (12oz). Shared with garthicus, via trade with goldtwins. Murky brick red with a small off-white head. Really like that aroma - dry, musty wood bitterness, yeast and muted sweet caramel malt and cocoa. Taste - same, sweeter with dry mocha, still woody and leafy, tartness creeps in to the malt in the finish. Thin but chewy body, lightly acidic and carbonated, it tapers off a tad as it finishes, but quite tasty.

Oct 4, 2008 pours murky mahogany brown with a thick sienna head. Aroma heavy with banana nut bread, bubblegum esters and citrus. Flavor is loads of spice, banana nut bread, light fruit, and citrus. Aftertaste of wheat, spice, fruit, a little alcohol warmth. oily and lightly carbonated. very drinkable!

Sep 28, 2008 Pours a murky brown with lots of floaties and a thick, off white head. Banana and clove aroma, with a bit of earthiness. Flavor is spicey, clovey, and very delicious. Some caramel, and a nice -carbonated mouthfeel. Alcohol is very well-hidden. Great beer.

Sep 18, 2008 Pours a murky dull orange/brown with a lovely thick creamy beige head. Great weizenbock aroma, spicy, clove, sweet wheat and caramel, banana and some alcohol. A great beer! and in a six-pack and 9%! First taste is definitely a little bit hot, some sweet caramel, bitter alcohol, fermented banana, and light spices. Lighter more watery body than expected in a weizen, still has that fine sizzling carbonation though. So drinkable for 8.7%. Love it! why does it have to be a seasonal though!!!

Jul 28, 2008 Pours a hazy amber color with not much head. What is there disipates quickly. Aroma is yeast and apricot. Taste is crisp and spicey, slight cidery feel. Lots of yeast taste. A great beer.
