Winter Already?

IMBC DISA Brew 17

With summer just beginning, it's hard to think about winter, but that's just what we did.  This weekend we brewed up another batch of our award winning weizenbock.  Using a grain bill of mostly malted wheat, along with pilsner and munich malts for base and specialty malt blend of medium crystal, special b and chocolate for color and complexity, this is definitely a malt forward wheat beer.  It's dark color and medium body, combined with a spicy traditional Bavarian weizen yeast and German noble hops lay the foundation and the high abv (8.6%ish) make this a perfect late fall/winter beer.

PS...as noted below, we also bottled up our bourbon aged imperial stout for our friends wedding.  I just want to say that if you are lucky enough to get a bottle of this masterpiece, you're welcome in advance.  Although, I have a feeling there may be more opportunities down the road....
