For an American Wheat, this is quite complex and flavourful.................

Fairly light bodied for a stout - more like a porter...even more like a dark lager, (oscura, dunkel, even maybe a schwarzbier?). It esp had those toffeeish, roasted, burnt flavors found in good German dark lagers. Clean nose. Dark but not opaque - a deep garnet color. Light head.

I found this to be an unusually highly hopped Imperial Stout. I detected a bit of hop flavoring as well. The big bodied malt flavor is of course dominant. Chewy and memorable. Luscious reddish tinted black color.

Malty, spicy and floral. A very pleasant rendition of the Duvel style......

Relatively black with a nice thick head. Nose is a mix of sugars and roast, with some burnt plum and citrusy hop. Flavour - well balanced, with lush sugars, rich hops, just-right roastiness, a little bit of burned fruit, and a shot of late alcoholic warmth. The body is thick and sugary. Complex, enjoyable, and very well-balanced.
