Review – Shegoat from The Bruery

It has been awhile since I have had a beer from the Bruery.  Don’t know why that is, just happened.  Time to remedy that with a new Germanic offering that I found for under $10 at Trader Joe’s of all places.

The beer pours a brownish/red color.  Cool to see the Bruery folks going back to their homebrew roots for this one. And good to see that it is a straight up German weizenbock (ish) beer.  Aroma is a bit milk chocolate covered raisin with some alcohol heat in there.  The taste is pretty sweet.  Getting some caramel notes here.  Sort of bready and pudding tasting to me.  The sweetness that I initially tasted fades away as a it drys out on the palate. Certainly a departure for the brewery but I like the adventure in this.
