Dark-ruby, almost black-colored and streaked with fine top-fermenting yeast, this beer has a compact and persistent head. This is a very intense wheat doppelbock with a complex spicy chocolate-like arome with a hint of banana and raisins. On the palate, you experience a soft touch and on the tongue it is very rich and complex, though fresh with a hint of caramel. It finishes in a rich soft and lightly bitter impression.

	A lovely dark, near-black ruby colour with a thick creamy white head. It has a smooth taste with a nice range of flavours, each one tasty and none overwheilming, masking its 8.2% kick quite well. I had to knock the drinkability rating down a half point due to its price. If it wasn't in the clearance barrel, I doubt I'd have picked this one up.
