Our Weizenbock is an American style strong wheat beer. It is made from 50% malted wheat and 50% malted barley. The wheat is used to give a distinctive flavor and because of its high protein content, a light hazy color. We use an American wheat yeast strain that will give the beer a fruity aroma and flavor, but not a clove flavor that is associated with German styles. We use Cascade hops to give a slight citrus flavor, but only in very small amounts so the flavors from the wheat and yeast will be predominant. This beer is not filtered so it will be cloudy in appearance, but will still be very refreshing even though it is 8% ABV.

On a recent trip to New Orleans I had a chan ce to try this new offeringt on tap. Not sure what a Weizenbock is, but I like them. A hazy rusty copper coloured pour with a tan coloured head. Aroma is wheat, bananas, and peppery spices. The flavour is slightly sweet, wheaty, and refreshing.
