Commercial Description:
A light-coloured, spicy single-bock wheat beer, for both beer lovers and the beer connoisseur. Extra long and cold storage in our monastery cellars makes this single-bock a really special beer with full body and a distinctively great mouthfeel. Prost!

Bottle from South Bay Drugs. Pours a hazy golden yellow with an orange hue. The head is a couple fingers of creamy white that takes its time to fade and laces spots. Smells spicy, banana, pepper, coriander and clove. Taste begins with sweet malt followed by the wheat and spice.

Draft. Hazy golden-straw colored beer with an off-white head. Wheat and banana aroma. Wheat, malt, banana, spice, yeast flavors. Medium body. Malt/wheat linger with slight citrus, spice, and banana. Nice and easy to drink.

(Bottle on 2008-10-04) Orange. Cloudy. Banana and salty liquorice in nose. Full bodied palate with quite a lot of carbonation. Malts, bitterness, some banana, salty liquorice and sweetness in taste. Sweet and bitter aftertaste.

essa Weizenbock alemã não tem uma aparência tão aprazível. Sua espuma tem aparência inicial pequena, cor branca e reduzida longevidade. Há moderada formação de colarinho e o corpo é turvo, grosso e de tonalidade marrom. O aroma é clássico e restrito: banana e cravo (bem pronunciado), nada mais. O sabor inicial é levemente doce e amargo, apresentando moderada doçura e leve amargor no final, de média duração. No paladar, um corpo médio-cheio, textura cremosa, carbonatação forte e final moderadamente alcoólico. A título de Weizen seria agradável, mas peca ao não apresentar elementos de Bock. Mascara muito bem o teor alcoólico de 7,7%. O final mais forte se aproxima de Bock no paladar.

Big Bottle... Nice weizen. Pours very hazy gold with a large white head. Aroma of cloves, wheat, and sweet malts. Fruity--banana, mostly, and some darker fruits--flavor, with a great sweetness.

One of the best wheat beers I’ve tasted. Pours dark yellow with a nice thick but frothy head. Flavors are of wheat, but no cereal with a balance of banana, apricot, and honey. Really unique and tasty.

Pours light yellow, cloudy, with a fine white head. Pleasantly light, yeasty, and grainy in aroma. Very spicy and effervescent. Good solid mouth feel. Sweet backing. Fuckin’ awesome.
