Banana, orange, clove, coriander, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Hazy golden yellow with small head. Moderately sweet banana, orange, clove, wheat malt, and mildly bitter straw and alcohol flavor. Good body. Weizenbock characteristics - excellent.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 11/30/2018. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy deep golden amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy off white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of huge lemon, orange peel, peach, pear, apricot, melon, red apple, coriander, peppercorn, clove, banana, bubblegum, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, spices, bready malts, and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with big strength. Taste of huge lemon, orange peel, peach, pear, apricot, melon, red apple, coriander, peppercorn, clove, banana, bubblegum, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, floral, grassy bitterness; and pepper/clove yeast spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, orange peel, peach, pear, apricot, melon, red apple, coriander, peppercorn, clove, banana, bubblegum, wheat, biscuit dough, light honey/toast, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, spices, bready malts, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a nice malt/bitter/spiciness balance; and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitter/spiciness. Slight lingering spicy alcohol. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and fairly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Mildly increasing warmth of 9% after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic imperial white! All around outstanding complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, spices, bready malts, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to sip on for the big ABV, with the mellowly bitter/spicy/drying finish. Very rich and complex with amazing balance of Belgian yeast, spices, and raw wheat/pils malts; with solid earthy hop presence. Not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and amazing spot on style example for an imperial style.
