Narrative:
On final, received report of turbulence and heard ground report by another aircraft of wind shift. Made decision to go around. During go around encountered wind shear twice. First time about 1200 ft AGL. Second time entry altitude unknown. Wind shear was severe. Continued straight ahead and leveled aircraft at 11000 ft. Departure asked for return to 10000 ft and aircraft descended to 10000 ft. Proceeded to alternate, aus.
