Wheaty Weizenbock
Weizenbock • All Grain • 19.50 L
Mostly wheat weizenbock. Very big in mouth feel. The crystal malt was not 120L, but 150L. This turned out to be too dark in the color and too heavy on the taste. I recommend to replace the crystal 150L with either a lighter crystral or a more honey malt.

Like an Octoberfest ?
2009-09-01 5:21am
One of my friends (an American from Kentucky) told me that this beer tasted like the HB's Octoberfest. I felt quite strange, since the style of this beer was not close to melzen. I guess that it is mainly due to the strong maltiness of this beer (as a Weizen). The aroma is definitely Weizen, not like the Octoberfest.
