Beer-a-Day #58
I generally like Clipper City‘s offerings. That they’re local appeals to me as well.
This is an odd one. Not just a weizenbock, but a weizen dopplebock. 10% ABV, but it’s a summer seasonal.
Deep amber to brown; little head. Lots of fruit in the aroma—melon, banana, bubblegum—and a whole lot of that malty goodness you find in a doppelbock. It’s thick, too, like liquid sourdough bread.
Seems too heavy for the summer, but it’s got something going for it. Very interesting.
