I cracked this one open with dinner tonight, suprised as I had never had one before. Served chilled nad poured into a pint glass, this one was consumed on 03/29/2009.
The pour was more then decent. Rich caramel in color with a nice hazy and cloudy look to it. Really tight head of off white lacing came only to about a quarter of an inch before falling down into a thin lacing around the sides. Rich toffee and sweet malts were dominating the aroma here. Nice touches of roasted nuts and a dark fruit as it warmed up. Smooth, subtle and with the alcohol well masked I went in for my first sip. Nice well rounded, and very well balanced profile here. Easy to drink as the warming and sweet malts played over the tongue. Rich notes of caramel and toffee are all over this one as it settles down nicely into a firm and soft finish that leaves a slightly drying and light flavor across the mouth.
Overall a very satisfying beer. Solid as could be and perfect for a nice spring afternoon. Good offering here from Victory.

Dark brown in color and murky in complexion. There's a fingernail of brown around three quarters of the rim and covering a third of the top. The aroma is of dark, syrupy sweet wheat and faint bubblegum and banana. I'm tasting dark wheat and a bit of sweet, overripe banana. The mouth is lightly sticky and chewy sweet.

Pretty good weizen bock, medium amber with thin head. Heavy malt masks the wheat backbone of this. Lacks the head of a real German weizen, but mouthfeel and overall body are pretty good. Medium weight winter warmer.

A fishy smell before it hits the mouth. Decent. Bitter but not hoppy. Caramel and syrup. Quite zingy. Fruity aftertaste. It's an American bigger, bolder take on the style. Has a lovely chilli chocolate quality, weirdly. Decent.
