December 21, 2005 - #164 of 365

Brewer: Flying Dog Brewing Company (Colorado, USA)
Beer: Wild Dog
Style: Weizenbock
abv: 8%

Background: 750 mL bottle from the store. This brewery sucks, but this is a special release.

Appearance: Pours murky brown with a large off-white head that quickly disappears.

Aroma: Very strong wheat, cloves, and light fruit, mostly banana and apricot. There's a background of toffee and other dark malt aromas.

Flavor: Reminds me of my homebrewed Hefeweizen--very wheaty, with some banana. There are some dark malt flavors at the finish. The wheat in the finish, however, tastes like mold.

Notes: Eh.

Rating: 3.3 out of 5
