Beers similar to Alpenglow

Fat Head's Brewery

Weizenbock·United States·8.5% ABV·One of 54 Weizenbocks in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Alpenglow's banana-y and clove character. Alpenglow is an unfiltered, foggy Weizenbock with aromas of wheat, clove, bubblegum and spice, plus raisin and banana. The body is full yet silky, and the finish carries toasted caramel malt and a wheat bitterness. A Hefeweizen yeast blend ferments Munich, dark crystal, Melanoidin and chocolate wheat malts under Magnum and Tettnang hops at 20 IBU. The name nods to twilight over the peaks.
