Oddly enough, I bought this because it's getting hot outside and I figured this would be a nice cold wheat beer for a hot day, and I also bought their double bock.
When I first smelled and tasted this one, I had to double check to make sure I hadn't grabbed the wrong one. It smelled like a bock. It tasted like a bock. Now I'm really curious to know what their bock tastes like.
Now that I've drunk a little farther, I'm wondering if that smell/flavor is actually more like a bock, or maybe the bottle is just a little skunked. Huh. Not a good sign if I have to debate which one it is. It does have more than just a bit of a spicy/tingly taste to it, which normally would be very good. But with a slightly skunky taste to it, not so much.
I may have just gotten a bad bottle, so I might buy another next time I'm out just to check on that. But for now I'm not that impressed. The spices get a big thumbs up, the beer base itself not so much.
