Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier Dunkel

Brewed by Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu (InBev)
Style: Dunkelweizen
Munich, Germany

Definite clover and banana aroma, similar to the hefeweizen. Small head that was gone by the time I sat down to drink, color resembled molasses. Clover, banana and fresh apple flavors, but perhaps a little watery. Palate was lively for the style, but went away quickly. This beer does things well, but for a seemingly short time.

Bottle. Poured a hazy orangish color with a two finger white head that left lacing on the side of the glass. Aroma was citrus, spice, yeast, and malts. Flavor was banana, and other fruits. Decent aftertaste, thin to medium body. Decent beer.

Bottle from Three Sons. All of the character of a Hefe Weizen, though not as much head as some others or lacings, but plenty of citrus flavurs, but more complex with some roasted and caramel character coming through

Bottle from BevMo! Mission Valley. Pours light brown with huge head. Banana in aroma with some candy and spices. Banana, wheat and maybe a little caramel in the mouth. Great mouth feel.

500ml Bottle - Hazy brown in colour. Malty and slightly spicy aroma, with hints of dried fruit. Fruity taste with raisins, banana and a hint of spice.

Pours a cola like color with a quckly diminishing tan head. aroma of fruit, banana, and yeast. taste is fruity in the begining with banana and then its change to a more maltier taste of banana nut bread. moutfeel is light and too fizzy. this Dunkel is a tad too waterd down and lack charcter. overall, a ok dunkel.

500ml bottle. Poured a dark ruby with a thick tan head. Good carbonation, hazy almost cola like. Citrus and coriander notes with a sweet malt banana taste. Clean and very moreish.

Bottled from Systembolaget Hazy brown with a large, fluffy head. Fruity spicy aroma with clove and mostly bananas. Fresh an light body. A bit too thin. Some bananas and clove.
