Troegs Scratch 57- Weizenbock

I picked up a case of Troegs Scratch 57- Weizenbock from the brewery. The beer pours a red-tinted amber color with a frothy beige head that leaves plenty of lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of raspberry, chocolate, caramel, and malts. The taste is big of dry bitter chocolate with a great sweet raspberry accent that provides some tartness. A peppery spice kick in with some carbonation bite. More chocolate comes out in the finish with toasted malts, a touch of caramel, and vanilla sweetness. The alcohol content is 7.9% ABV. I like how dark and bitter chocolate played really well with bitter raspberry flavors, but the toasted malt background with a touch of vanilla really made the beer.

Sierra Nevada Best of Beer Camp Weizenbock

One of the beers out of the Sierra Nevada Best of Beer Camp sampler packs was the Weizenbock. The beer pours an opaque orange-tinted golden color with a lofty and frothy white head. The aroma consists of wheat and lemon with a hint of pepper and grassy hops. The taste is smooth and sweet with a creamy mouth feel, lots of lemon flavor, earthy and grassy hops, and a hint of orange. The finish has a little dry pepper bite to it, but is quite enjoyable. The alcohol content is 6.8% ABV. This was a smooth and nicely sweet with great citrus flavors, creamy mouth feel, and a refreshing experience.
