Aroma is aluminum foil, slight milk chocolate, a bit dust, some dark toffee. Taste is bitter with sweet and sourish hop flavour above, some perfume and dandelion. BItter finish of dark malt. Ok.

Bottle, slightly too old. Amber, golden lace. Dusty honeyish nose, with a liht catty grassy hop notes. Medium light body, light bready malt, a hint floorboard, herbal earthy hop counterpoint. Not too shabby also considering it is a bit too old.

€-Fläschla: Hazy to cloudy, orangey-golden, small off-white foamy layer; moderate sourish-sweetish nose of rye-bread (sour-dough) and surely of other grains with a cellary-yeasty background; moderate sourish-sweetish flavour, nearly medium bodied; drier and lingering sourish-bready and yeasty finish. Quite a good example of this - basically - horrible style...

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours fairly hazy loaded gold with relatively low white head, medium grain. Aroma is grassy, grain, even some spicing maybe. Body is average with moderate carbonation. Taste is intensely bitter, but with good sweetness that gives depth. Finish is long and bitter.

“Meinel Weizenbock“, 7 %, Flasche (50 cl) von Hopfen & Malz, Berlin- Wedding. - Goldbraun, gut trüb, grobporiger instabiler Schaum. - In der Nase weizenbierige Gewürze (Nelke, Muskatnuß), milde, zart herbe Zitrusfrucht und eine zarte unreife Note. - Antrunk für einen Bock erstaunlich frisch und leicht mit weicher Zitrusfrucht (Mandarine) und Aprikose über mildem, rundem Weizenmalz mit etwas Karamel. Weiche, in dezente Hefe eingebettete schlanke Süße. Gut rezent, unaufdringlicher Alkohol mit Anklängen an Apfelkorn. Im Abgang sehr milde Hopfenherbe. - Untypisch schlanker, frischer Weizenbock mit weichem Malzkörper und schön frischem Aromenbukett.

Bottle. Deep golden color with white head. Aroma is bready, rye spice, spelt, some fruity hops. Taste is caramel, spelt and rye, fruity hops give a nice counterpoint; interesting tartness as well. Oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Good!
