Mikkeller Wiezenbock Weizenbock at 8.5% ABV (C$5.90 at Sherbrooke Liquor, 330 ml, best before 30-Nov-2017, acquired 17-Dec-2016, reviewed 10-Oct-2017)
Appearance: slightly hazy amber with one finger of creamy ivory head, excellent retention and well-defined lacing. (4/5) Aroma: caramel, wheat, cloves, banana, black pepper. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter, moderate spice. (8/10) Medium body, moderate carbonation, medium duration mildly spicy finish. (4/5)
Pretty solid example of the style. No tricks, no different take on the style, just a straightforward Weizenbock – albeit one that tends on the emphatic side for cloves. (16/20)
