500ml bottle. Cloudy, dark brass colour with average to huge, thick, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, minimally bready, wheaty malty and yeasty fruity, minimally yeasty spicy aroma, notes of pear, overripe banana, some clove and honey. Taste is sweet-ish, wheaty malty and yeasty fruity, notes of pear, overripe banana, some honey, a yeasty spicy touch of clove. Watery texture, slightly dry, simultaneously minimally cloying palate, medium, foamy, mildly prickly carbonation. Nice fruity flavours, slight Maibock allusions (honey, almost a starchy touch), not overly complex overall - OK.

0.5 l bottle from 'Bierothek' (online), best before November 2023. Hazy, orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, quite yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity-floral aroma of banana, clove, honey and light pear. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, rather yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity-floral taste of banana, clove, honey and some pear, followed by a short, gently bitter finish. Almost full-bodied, smooth and quite effervescent mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Pleasant Weizenbock.

Bottle. Amber with a foamy white head that never quite disappears. Aroma of biscuit, light herbs and flowers. Not as rich as some, but mouthfilling with herbal bitterness that's enough to lift away the sweetness. Gulpable, not bad at all.
