Weizenbock translates to Weizen = Wheat, Bock = Strong. Think of Weizenbock as a strong Hefeweizen.
A beautiful nod to the German beers we’ve loved to brew since we opened in 2014, an aroma of banana and clove leap through the soft pillowy head of this German-style strong wheat beer. Brewed with 50% wheat malt and 45% Vienna, the S&O Weizenbock is a warming 7.1% with notes of plum, raisin, bready malt, and a hint of bubblegum.
Weizenbock is an S&O OG beer. Last brewed in 2018!

Nice big foam, heavily carbonated yellowish liquid with some slight fog. Smells of dough, banana, and soft mandarin orange. Flavour is a very nice mix of citrus and wit notes, more dough. Medium finish and good balance. I liked this one.

Draught at Alibi Room, Vancouver
Cloudy amber color, creamy head. Some bubblegum and spices, but also yeast and stale pond water; light residual sweetness; the body is thin for a Weizenbock, and there is a serious lack of character. Un-German.
Not interesting.

On tap at Steel & Oak, pours a cloudy opaque orange with a small white head. Aroma is fruity, with notes of toasted nuts, banana, clove and fruitiness. Flavour is very fruity, with the exact same notes, finishing on fruity and toasted notes. Not the most robust for the style, but quite pleasant. Decent.
