Yuck

I bought a bottle of Aventinus Wheat-Doppelbock several weeks ago and it has been staring at me every time I open the fridge. I finally got around to trying it tonight. I did not like this beer. I was not planning on reviewing it so I didn't take notes, and the only reason I am posting on it is because I thought it was so bad. This beer is too sweet and too malty for my taste. Every drink felt as if it stayed at the top of my stomach, ready to come back up. Uncomfortable. I am not a German beer expert and don't know if this beer is representative of the doppleback style. It is highly ranked on BeerAdvocate (see link above), but I found it unpleasant to drink.
