Ceramic mug at Prien an Chiemsee. Sweet malty weizen taste, malty aroma with fruity notes. Taste is sweetish but rather balanced, it has a sharp dry edge, light bitter, supposedly neatly hopped. Full bodied, thick texture, carbonated. A bit difficult at first bug goes down pretty well, not my favorite in the style but solid.

16.9 oz. bottle. Opaque dark brown with a short-lived beige head. Aroma of malt nuts and bread. Taste is malt, nuts, bread, mild roast, and spice with banana notes. Mild sweetness and bitterness. Decent.

On tap at PIB 2016, pours a murky deep dark brown with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out toasted nuts and bready malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with bready malt, toasted malt and dark dried fruits. Low-medium residual sweetness. Solid stuff.

Pours hazy deep brown color with medium, off-white head. Smell of wheat, herbs and caramel. Medium body with subtle carbonation. Thick, oily texture. Moderately sweet taste with some bitter notes to it. Aroma of wheat, caramel, toffee, nuts, herbs, spices. Woody aftertaste. Lovely balanced, just the right amount of sweetness. Overall, delicious.

Very dark red brown fluid with medium beige head. Aroma is sweet dried figs and raisins and caramel, very complex might have missed some. Taste is a little thin. Not as much sweetness as predicted by the aroma and not so well rounded. Mouthfeel is very much carbonation, aggressive and rather unpleasant. Overall OK, I guess.

Flasche (50 cl) aus einem Berliner Edeka. - Tiefes Kastanienbraun, trüb; üppiger Schaum. - Recht schwache Nase mit Anklängen an Nelke, überreife Banane, Pflaumenmus und dunkles Malz. - Im Antrunk weiches dunkles Malz, Milchschokolade, überreif-süße Frucht, alles recht matt und wie durch einen Hefeschleier gedämpft. Herbe ist kaum vorhanden. Für einen Bock ein wenig dünn im Mund. Im Abgang schwach würzig, leicht milchschokoladig und matt süß mit Likörnoten. - Zu blasser, ausdrucksloser Bock, der streckenweise tatsächlich an Zuckerwasser einnert. Enttäuschend.
