Bottle from Wal-Mart in Lebanon, MO. I read the label and thought this was going to be a brown ale. Eh, I thought, okay. Got home, poured it into a glass and didn’t think it was a brown ale. Checked the classification here, and sho’ nuff, it’s a dunkelweizen. Smells of peanut butter. Pours a medium brown. Tastes like a weizen, only a bit more toasty. Smooth finish. A good American example of the style. I dig it.

Oct 7, 2008 Pours slightly hazy dark reddish brown with a thin off white head. Aroma is banana, sweet ginger/clove spice, and a little dark dried fruit. Flavor is yeasty bananas, cotton candy, caramel malt and all around pretty good. Finish is pretty quick but a little lemon and some spicy yeast bite.

Oct 7, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours hazy mahogany with soapy beige head. The aroma is lemon, wild mint, a few sweet banana hints, a mild clovey spiciness, and a touch of raisin. The flavor is a mellow, yeasty banana bread with some soft, spicy notes around it. Prickly finish. Ok, but pretty uninteresting.

Oct 3, 2008 Dark rusty brown color, cloudy, with a off-white head. Bananas in the nose, soft clove notes. Cereal and caramel sweetness up front, fruity finish with lots of esters. Tastes like sweet banana bread with a soft palate and lingering dry finish. I thought this was quite a bit better then the score suggests.

Sep 29, 2008 Pours hazy deep amber/copper with a off white head. Aroma of yeast, citris, spice. Taste is pretty much the same with some grainy caramel malt. It is fairly light, but was easy drinking and I liked the flavor the yeast added.
