Bottled. A murky dark brown beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma has notes of fruit, chocolate, wheat, and cloves. The flavor is sweet with notes of chocolate, wheat, cloves, bananas, malt, and caramel, leading to a dry wheaty finish. Thanks pinball for sharing.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of Pinball. Pours a cloudy opaque dark brown with an orange hue and a creamy beige head. Sweet chocolate aroma blending in nicely with the yeast, a little vanilla as well. Medium body, soft carbonation and a soft mouthfeel, sweet chocolate and subdued banana accents. No bitterness. A bit to the sweet side, but it actually works surprisingly well. 150512

very dark color, lots of bananas and cloves. Not that balanced, but not too bad. OK

Pours thick and the color of molasses. Aroma is of light roasted malts, chocolate, some spice from the yeast. Syrupy and smooth palate. Light burnt malts, some coffee notes, chocolate, dark fruits, and some spice. An OK brew but nothing special.

Bottle. Pitch black with a tall, fine, thick, tan head. Aroma of bitter chocolate, banana, clove, sour fruits, and yeast. Complex flavor of bitter chocolate, wood, roasted malts, banana, cherry, green apple. Sweetness is restrained well, and there is quite a sour aspect. Finish very much like a stout—roasty and bitter, with some alcohol as well. Like a big stout with wheat in it. Creamy and smooth, though the body is a little too thin and light. I’ve never really had a big wheat beer like this before. The weizen elements are there, but subdued, overshadowed by roasted malts and sour fruits. Good; very interesting and original, though somehow the combination doesn’t work as well as a more straightforward weizenbock.
