Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7

Super deep dark brown coloured body with a thick, two to three centimetre tall off-white and tan head that stays afloat nicely and leaves a small lace on the sides. Aroma of wheat, metal, bread, nuts, earth, toffee, caramelised sugars and a dry, grainy note with some flowers noticeable as well, but the aroma is quite strong and deep. Medium-bodied; Strong nutty and very earthy, rustic flavours show with some breads, grain, flowers, toffee and even some chocolate noticeable with a deep and metallic flavour that is strongest and ending with a light sweetness from the caramelised sugars and nuts with a dry note and some alcohol here, but nowhere close to the nearly 8 per cent that this brings. Aftertaste shows some dry, grainy and very earthy qualities with a touch of the metal and pungency, but not enough body to make this too strong and only showing a touch of the bitterness from the malts, but enough sweetness here to also dull the potent flavours, as well. Overall, a relatively nice and strong weizenbock with some rich notes, at least early on and in the nose, but fade relatively quickliy and linger only at the beginning, while the end is much cleaner and easy-drinking. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Cary (Crossroads Boulevard), North Carolina on 30-May-2021 for US$4,79 sampled at my house here in Washington on 08-January-2022.
