This devilish weizenbock is stronger than it appears and is the third installment in our Hansel and Gretel beer series. This is one is a wicked ale with notes of banana and dates. This beer is so strong you should consider leaving a trail of bread crumbs in case you forget your way home.

Bottle. Pours a clear dark amber with a tan head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has earthy dark grains with a touch of raisin and clove supporting. Flavor has sweet dark grains with a bit of clove and a hint of raisin in the finish.

Refrigerated brown bomber, bottle on July 31, 2015 from FlandersNed poured into a weizen glass. Opaque medium brown with light brown and small beige head. Aroma is caramel & banana, medium body, low/medium carbonation, and some small-bubble lacing. Taste is big caramel, banana, some chocolate, and a little alcohol. Glad I got to try it, but pricey.

22 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 7/31/2015. Pours fairly crystal clear deep reddish brown color with a 2 finger dense and rocky khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big raisin, plum, fig, banana, clove, light bubblegum, caramel, brown sugar, toffee, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/chocolate, light herbal, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great complexity and balance of fruity/earthy yeast and dark/bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big raisin, plum, fig, banana, clove, light bubblegum, caramel, brown sugar, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/chocolate, light herbal, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Light-moderate herbal bitterness/yeast spiciness on the finish; with lingering notes of raisin, plum, fig, banana, clove, caramel, brown sugar, toffee, toasted biscuit, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/earthy yeast and dark/bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance and zero cloying sweetness after the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready, and slightly slick mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is an awesome weizenbock. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/earthy yeast and dark/bready malt flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV. A highly enjoyable offering.
