Type: Weizen Bock
ABV: 8.7%
Sight: Deep dark amber-brown, that is opaque to an extreme. It pours with a thin head of off-white, that disappears quickly, leaving the surface naked to the elements.
Aroma: Lotsa malt that bleeds dark fruit and nose tingling spices. Alcohol is there in abundance, but not to an extreme that I don't want to inhale more and more of it. Sweetness is the main part and it is very attractive.
Taste: Sweetness and alcohol are in the forefront and are brutal on the tastebuds. Raisin, prune, plum, and grain make this, a very flavorful brew. The malt fades and lets the yeast come in near the end. The finish comes up blah, with a tad tart that I could take or leave.
Overall: I like the originality of the style, the lighter flavors of the dark-fruit are nice, instead of being to overpowering. The mouthfeel is medium, and there is a nice sweet, slightly tart aftertste that is uneventful. I wish there were more carbonation, to give this brew a more attractive tingle to the mouth.
Score: 8.1/10
