Bottle: Clear copper-brown with a tight beige head. Dark banana (bread), clove aroma. Sweet caramel malt, banana, dark fruit flavour. Nearly sugary....a bit of boozy warmth. Quite tasty.

Bottle (big thanks to Weihenweizen). Banana, orange, clove, caramel malt, and hay aroma. Dark amber with large light tan head. Sweet banana, caramel malt, and moderately bitter clove, hay, and alcohol flavor. Not bad - a bit boozy.

Thanks going to weihenweizen for this 650 ml bottle. Dark Amber color borders on brown color, massive head in my Haker-Pschorr weizen glass. Aroma is caramel, muted yeast, malt wheat and maybe
Th aroma had me hopeful However, the body is way lighter then it should be. The flavor has malted wheat, Munich malts, light pumpernickel bread, brown sugars. The flavor is diluted by a watery body and texture. Some mild unwanted astringent notes in the finish. The only American example of a weizenbock that could hold a candle to the German examples was a Beer Camp from Sierra Nevada from a year or two ago. Maybe if the brewer can beef up the body, it could improve this a lot.

Refrigerated brown bomber poured into a weizen glass. Translucent medium brown with light brown highlights and medium beige head. Aroma is dark malt & clove, medium body, medium carbonation, and good small-bubble lacing. Taste is dark malt, some clove, and some banana. Really solid dunkle weizenbock.
