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!

Expecting this to look different for some reason. Pours nice slightly hazy golden with delicious and booming white head. Yeasty fruity notes indicate the nose, banana plums and subtle clove spices, ...The body is a lot more spicey, than the nose ( a good thing in my book,) and a tad yeasty and leaves a lingering funky sourness, which is pleasing. Nice mouthfeel and very drinkable. A good example of one of my favorite styles.

Pours light straw/orange yellow with a large foamy white head. Aroma of sweet malted wheat, and citrus. Sweet and sour wheat, some banana and slightly metallic. Fluffy mouthful with some good carbonation. A nice drinking light Weizen bock.

Ok..my first rating. Nice aroma of banana and thick, rich head. Great banana flavor with hints of clove and possibly cinnamon. Great beverage and can’t wait to have more.

Bottle. Pours a golden brown body with a moderate white head. Aroma is fruity with banana, lemon, spices, and some sweet malt. Flavor filled with a dry finish.

Bottle. Cloudy golden colour with a big white head. Aroma is big and warm, with banana and yeast and a nice hint of lemon. Full mouthfeel. Flavour of a really solid weiss on steroids - everything tastes great, and there’s more of it. Finish is dry and warm, with some herbal hops and a bit of alcohol. Another Weihenstephan winner.

Golden and hazy with a large head. Banana ester aroma that could be more asertive. Flavour was quite like a hefe, fruity esters and a little spice, but with a restrained dryness and a stong malt character. Medium body. Pretty good.
