0.5 l bottle. Hazy yellow brown color with thick head. Bready and clovey aroma with some banana as well as hint of chocolate and vanilla. Slightly sweet bready and clovey flavor with notes of caramel, rye and vanilla. I’m not a big fan of dunkel weizens but this pint certainly made my sunday afternoon!

Bottle at the Viking. Hazy brown colored pour with medium sized white head. Fruity, hoppy, nutty aroma. Sweet roasted malts with fruity hints. Not bad.

Pours a cloudy aber-brownwith a foamy tan head. Familiar Hefe aroma with some roasted nutiness added in. Smooth and drinkable, but a bit watery on the finish. Refreshing.

Bottle 0.5 l. Pours cloudy mahogany brown with small-for-a-weizen, but persistent head. Nose is strongly fruity, especially banana. Flavor is fruity, bit sourish and only slightly roasted. Caramel, sweet. Body is smooth with a strangely watery finnish. Light for it’s kind and alcohol content. Still enjoyable. Re-rate: This time I found it much more enjoyable. Fresh and even surprisingly bitter rather than sweet. Didn’t notice the body to be watery either. Much better than the original tasting (6/4/63/10:2.9).

Bottle, split with after4ever. Pours hazy brown with a fluffy white head. Medium body and light carbonation. Nice nutty flavor with a touch of banana. I think we should have led off with this one rather than letting it bring up the rear.

Pours a dull milk chocolate brown with a large foamy off-white head. Wonderful aroma of banana-bread and cinnamon. Flavor is not nearly as good as the regular Hefe. Something about the sweetness just really overpowers the dark malt... and without the dark malt what is the point of a dunkelweizen? This beer frustrates me, because I really want to taste those roasted malts...bah.
