bierkoning (5077), La Tropica, Netherlands Oct 20, 2008 Bottle from Lithy, thanks! Orange brown color, hazy. Malt and a hint of nutmeg in the aroma. Malty sweetish flavor with pear and nutmeg. Not unpleasant, but not outstanding. CaptainCougar (4687), Rockville, Maryland, USA May 5, 2007 Pours a hazy copper amber with a wispy-lacing light tan head. Aroma of sweet dark malted wheat and bready, citrusy, clove German yeast with a hint of bananas. Body starts a little thin for the style with a light malty wheaty sweetness and some authentic doughy yeast. A decent dunkelweizen. hopscotch (4678), Vero Beach, Florida, USA May 28, 2008 Bottle
Pours hazy amber with a small, fizzy, white head thats gone in a flash. The nose is defined by dark cereal grains, spice, touches of overripe banana and chocolate with a suggestion of caramel. Medium-bodied with bristly carbonation. A smidge of chocolate with restrained essences of overripe banana and spice. Sweet up front with light acidity, but bittered well enough with minerally hops to provide near-perfect balance. Sweet, grainy, chocolaty finish.<b>Bottle provided by headbanger!</b> BückDich (4603), Boise, Idaho, USA Oct 5, 2007 Tap @ Nomad World Pub, Minneapolis: Dark mahogany, nice head and light lacing. Nose of bright fig and fruit, yeast and some spicy esters. The flavor is balanced, nice body, spice, sweet belgian style but not the right belgian serving method. Cold pint filled to the brim, yum.
