Just after I'm talking about how I rarely see weizenbocks, I'm in my favorite beer store and see this one, from a brand I have faith in, usually.
Smell is wheat-beery, without yeast character, sort of like an American hefeweizen. Slightly sweet, wheat beer flavor. A little thick, chewy. Tart finish.
Less sweet and dessert-like than I expected - a lot like a heavier American wheat. Good though, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it again - I like my weizenbocks to be more syrupy, basically, and with more yeastiness.
