Bottle, vielen vielen dank Günther! Flambeed banana aroma, berry notes. Cloudy red-brown, huge golden-brown head, lively carbonation - looks brilliant in my Aventinus glass. Rich caramel entry, port, roasted bananas, pears and berry jam. Medium body, light sparkly on the tongue, mellow mouthfeel. Very very nice - finally a weizenbock in the same class as the favourite from Schneider.

Bottle, thanks pivnizub. Light berrylike nose. Chestnut, low carbonation, creamy creamcoloured head. Fruity malt entry, light smoke, roast, herbal hops. Lighter medium, but mellow mouthfeel and still chewy. Dry finish, grassy hops and berries retronasal. Easy drinkable, yet subtlly delicate.

Bottle: Almost black, cloudy, mid-sized creamy beige head; sweet fruity (dried fruits) and toasty-caramelly nose with a faint phenolic-wheaty background; soft MF, medium to full bodied, moderate to solid sweet-bitter(!) flavour; bitter chocolatey notes in the warming fruity-wheaty finish. Quite well rounded, nourishing Weizen-Bock..........

(bottle) Cloudy, dark brown colour with a big and slowly lacing beige foamy head. Sweet and delicately toasted malty and wheaty aroma with pronounced fruity notes of dark berries, cassis and shy phenolic spices (cloves, vanilla). Sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a moderate carbonation. Toasty malty and wheaty taste with slightly sourish berry-fruity notes. Sweet and moderately fruity finish with light clove-spicy notes, which makes it pleasant to drink (18.II.09).

(Euro2 bottle) Cloudy, amber colour with a very huge and firm, slowly lacing off-white foamy head. Light-sweet, slightly wheaty, cara-malty aroma with a delicate apricot-fruity and herbal hoppy note. Moderately sweet flavour with a tinge of sourness, almost medium bodied with a slick mouthfeel. Wheaty and cara-malty base with distinctive apricot-fruity notes and a touch of banana; almost dry, wheaty and slightly citrousy hoppy finish with a delicate clovy spice. Well-balanced, and tasty Ur-Weizen (19.X.08).

(bottle) Clear, amber colour with a big and beige foamy head. Sweet and slightly sugary toast-malty aroma with notes of toffee and a shy tinge of hops. Light-sweet flavour, medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Delicately toasted malty taste with toffee and a touch of sour dough; medium-dry toasty finish with a moderate level of bitterness. Decent but unexciting Franconian Landbier (12.X.08).

Draught at some Pizzeria Trattoria in Lauf an der Pegnitz. OK banana aroma. Cloudy caramelly brown colour. Big stable creamy tan head. The flavour also has some banana. Quite sweet, butterscotch flavour. A standard dunkel or perhaps bernstein weizen.
