    Moonglow Weizenbock. Alcohol is pretty much undetectable, not bitter and super smooth IMHO.

    Eh, maybe for 18% it's smooth, but it's a rather boozy beer. As much as I enjoyed it, imo calling it easy drinking is a stretch.

    Same with most BA brews. No, Prabola isn't bitter...but calling it "easy drinking" is a bit absurd.
