Pours like a Wei-bock, all brick orange brown, handsome translucence and a tight white head.

Smells like cocoa, wheat malt, and bananas. This--this is gonna be tasty.

Tastes like bananas, whipped cream, toasted coconut, yeast, and a little bit of ethanol. The back end overwhelms the front just a little bit, but everything still rolls together pretty well.

Rule of thumb: Snowstorm is always--ALWAYS--worth buying. 5-6 bucks for a sixer of high ABV excellence.

And, wow, with the 2010 edition the good folks at Schell have outdone themselves, delivering a kickass version of a style that's deceptively hard to brew.

Appearance - Pours a very dark brown/amber color with an inch thick, creamy tan head that dissipates instantly. Leaves a pretty nice lacing.

Smell - Sweet with roasted malts and banana.

Taste - Has very nice, heavy malts. Very sweet, caramel, dark fruits, clove, and a slight alcohol bitterness in the finish.

Mouthfeel - Has a medium/creamy body with low carbonation.

Overall - I think this is my first time trying this style of beer. It's not bad.
