757. Harpoon Weizenbock (100 Barrel Series #21)
I bought this at Liquor World in Porter Square on the 19th and split it that night with Jadyn.
Beer Stats:
Brewery: Harpoon Brewery
Alcohol: 7.80%
Serving: Bottle 22 oz.
Style: Weizenbock, BJCP Style Guide
Appearance (3.0): Pours a lightly-hazed amber. It's topped by a thick, foamy head that fades to nothing, leaving no lace.
Smell (4.0): Nice aromas of bananas and cloves, a bit of pepper, and a bit of maltiness that's hard to place.
Taste (3.0): Sweet, bready maltiness. Banana and clove esters. Spicy in the finish with very little bitterness. I wasn't a huge fan, the flavors were nice and all there, but it seemed a bit one-dimensional.
Mouthfeel (3.5): Medium-bodied, moderate to high carbonation.
Drinkability (3.5): Decent, but nothing that makes you want more.
Overall (3.3)
