Not sure what to make of this one but it was very tempting. Nice looking bottle, gives a lovely pour and leaves an intriguing body of dark brown with a deep haze and a golden hue around the edge. Aromas of banana and wheat, like a traditional Weiss, but then the bock tones roll in with a tonne of toffee, some sweet biscuit and lots of dried fruits. This has a great mouthfeel, medium bodied, with hefty foam and light carbonation. The 8.2% ads a great depth and warmth which does a great job of complimenting the sweetness. The taste is like the scent but with a few enhancements. It opens with the Weiss notes, with a little extra banana, coriander and clove, then into the sweet tones with extra sweet biscuit, this time more like caramel than toffee with the fried fruits getting individual recognition, sultanas, raisins and cranberries. A great big beer, big notions and big flavours. It has a high abv but it goes down so easy that I'd love to have another.

Hyvä weizenbock, mutta Vituksen jälkeen... Tämä vaan on karskinpi, vähemmän pehmeä ja alkolla on isompi rooli. Rungossa on enempi toffeemaista makeutta mutta se on silti ohuempi kuin Vituksen pehmeä esterinen täyteläisyys. Tässä maltaalla ja alkolla on isompi rooli, Vituksessa estereillä.

Im Glas relativ dunkel, erinnert an Cola-Weizen. Die Schaumkrone ist üppig und stabil. Unten eher grobporig, nach oben hin fein und cremig. Der Geruch ist röstmalzig und leicht bananig-süß. Der Geschmack ist sehr kräftig. Banane im Vordergrund. Dazu malzig-brotig. Erinnert an dunkles Vollkornbrot. Insgesamt gut ausgewogen. Etwas schwer für die Temperaturen, aber ziemlich lecker.

Ton av banan

Lots of clove and lots of alcohol, it's too medicinal for my tastes, finding it difficult to drink.

Brutal. Lecker. Stark.
