Bottle. Pours cloudy brownish copper with big off-white head. The aroma is full of soft fruity esters, peach, tangerine, banana; there is also some muffin, faint alcohol, and some spice. The flavor is bran muffins with some lemon and peach and general acidic bite. Then some hints of clove, faint nuts, and some allspice. The finish has an acidic kick with yeast and allspice and a soft, confectionary aftertaste. Pretty good stuff.

A whole lot going on in the aroma here - think cinamon bread - warm with butter.. Yeasty and tangy but with an added sugary sweetness - a good quality dunkel. Only needs more palate.

Strong apricot, banana, and subtle clove bouquet. Very dingy gold color, thick off white head. Apricot and banana flavor, with a light lemon grass finish. Delicious, nicely tart, and refreshing. This is an outstanding wheat beer. It isn’t terribly dark for a dunkelweizen, but who cares? The taste rocks!

Initial taste is a malt and wheat, balanced perfectly. Finish is the sweetness and a nice bitter. Extremely drinkable, reminds me why I love well made German beers.
