On tap at the brewery. Served a dark mahogany color with a nice tan head that fades to good lacing. Aroma of roasted malt, fruity, mostly banana and a bit earthy. Taste of roasted malt, banana with some milc chocolate in the background. Mild bitterness and a clean finish. Medium body, smooth and creamy. niely balanced. An enjoyable beer that goes down easy.

1.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 floydian1 (729) - FNQ Australia, AUSTRALIA - APR 11, 2012
750ml bottle. Pours dark red-brown with a loose off white head. Rather incongruous nose of burnt caramel, dark chocolate and cherries with a hint of smoke. I get none of the advertised banana and clove aromas. Taste is rather unpleasant and nothing like any dunkelweizen I have ever tasted with acidic vinegary notes and a dry bitter finish. Light-medium palate with rather flat mouthfeel for the style. There is something definitely not right here in my opinion. Considering that the price Down Under is comparable with the genuine product from Germany, you may as well stick with the originals.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 mkel07 (2340) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - AUG 6, 2011
750ml bottle. Tar like cola colour with a big thick hefeweizen head that you come to expect. Aromas are roast malt, caramel, toffee and some smoke. Nutty finish after a tart ininital flavour in the mouth. Pretty good over all.
1.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 Jessop (178) - AUSTRALIA - APR 12, 2011
Whatever "This" is, it is not Dunkelweizen, sure it is dark in appearance, too dark I feel, yes malty too...I liken this beer more a porter than a "weizen" . It only sports the barest of the clove and banana that the maker boasts of, yet I agree that it is smooth...Not worth the bucks their asking. sorry.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Davros (1515) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - APR 8, 2011
Tap at Biero.
Pours black with a large head.
Nose shows loads of toasty malt with some banana in the background. Too toasty.
Favours mirror the aroma almost perfectly: toasty, bready malt and banana. Finishes abruptly. Again, too toasty.
Body seems light, almost watery.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 hawthorne00 (1889) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - MAR 6, 2011
Bottle, Feb 11 release. Very dark brown with a large light tan head. Cola caramel aroma with vanilla, cloves, plums and banana. A little roasted malt underneath. Good gentle bready mouthfeel. Light slightly smoky roast and cola taste is moderately sweet, followed by some fruit and spices and grassy finishing hop bitterness. There’s a tiny bit of wheaty sourness as it warms a tad. Chocolate is there at the end too.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Jade (385) - AUSTRALIA - AUG 22, 2010
Hazy brown amber colour with a dissapearing beige head. Wheat aroma and taste with a suprising smoke overtone that stays on the palette. Not really a Hefeweizen, but not bad either.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 davidm (1798) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - JAN 2, 2010
Bottle 750ml. Nice taste, but a bit weak in the palate. Aromas of wheat and caramel. Flavour is sweet, with light bitterness, and average-lasting. Velvety in the palate, and medium body. Brown colour, creamy long-lasting head.
