The brewery may have closed its bar and restaurant last month, but the beers keep on coming. This time it's the return of a style that's cropping up a little more often around the Aussie craft beer world these days - the weizenbock, aka a strong wheat beer. It's a beautiful looking beer in the glass with a fluffed up pillow like ahead atop its cloudy brown body. It's one with plenty going on too; the label might talk of its chocolate flavours, but get it young and it's those big, fruity wheat beer esters that grab your attention first: banana, particularly. The chocolate (of the milky variety, we reckon) takes over afterwards, with some gently spicy hops and warming alcohol (it is 7.9% after all) completing the picture.
