Bottle. A dark brown body holds up a great big tan head that isn’t leaving any time soon. Sweet and clove-filled aromas. Flavor is decent, but pales in comparison to the Aventinus that I had a couple of nights back. It has a pretty dominant burnt flavoring... almost borders on coffee in the aftertaste. Also has a bit of an alcoholic bite to it and there’s not quite enough malt sweetness to balance it out. It comes off as a little astringent, but not terribly so. Bananas and cloves are there, too, and they begin to get more and more full as it warms. Pretty darn nice.

Pours dark ruby color with light tam head. Fruity and malty aroma. Sweet flavors of dark fruits, candy sugar. Medium to full body with average carbonation and smooth mouthfeel. Not bad.

Batch 001. Sampled from a 25.4 oz green bottle this beer poured a dark ruby-chestnut color with a large dark tan head. The aroma was sweet, tangy, malty and lightly fruity. The flavor was sweet roasty chocolate, ripe cherry and pear and a caramel undertone. The finish was long with fruit and chocolate. Moderately thick and hides the alcohol well. Nicely malty.

Pour is a cloudy orange with a tall white head. Aroma is typical, a nice mix of banana and clove with some wheat. Flavor is about the same but a little watery. Some banana and clove with a bit of tartness in the end. An ok hefe to have around the house.

22oz bomber. Glowing orange-tan color. Sweet, complex, malty beer. Alcohol is apparent but slightly veiled through the smooth yeasty richness. I really like this beer, but was more impressed the first time I had it, when I assumed the alcohol content was a tad higher. A really nice Heller Bock, definitely worth a try.
