Best Of Beer Camp: Weizenbock - Beer Camp #37
Into a tulip it pours a murky dark orange, very cloudy and murky with yeast trub. Fluffy cap of white foam that lingers for a good five minutes, with a layer of opaque yeast resting just under the surface until the first sip. Banana creme pie aroma that jumps out first, softly sweet and wheaty, with some clove phenols as it warms. Later on it loses the banana to some degree, favoring wheat and spice. Creamy feel with lots of ripe banana flavors. Clove, cracked wheat, light apricot notes. Lightly sweet but not cloying, and slightly dry in the finish. Mellow, medium bodied with a light lingering note of spicy clove. Overall a pretty good rendition.
