Commercial Description:
Deep and dark colored, cloudy with yeast. Brewed with a darker roasted malt which adds some maltiness to the refreshing flavour of the Hefe-Weissbier.

Bottle. Head was large frothy white and was mostly lasting. Good lacing in glass. Body was light cloudy with partials in flow. Color was golden brown. Aroma was wheat, citrus, clove, coriander, banana, caramel. For some reason I felt that some of the malty notes were kind of missing from this Dunkelweizen Light to medium bodied and an average carbonation. Light sweet finish.

Pours a dark plum color with an off white 2 finger head. Aromas and flavors of dark fruits, and cloves. Medium to thin palate that was crisp and mildly carbonated.

Hazy brown hue, with a rocky beige head, leaving laces, yeasty, toasted and wheaty malt nose with a fruity accent of fig, raisin an caramelized ripe apples, with some spicy notes of cinnamon and clove, with a subtle fruit wineyness in the arom follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, fruity wheaty character, some toasted and caramel malts, with a hint of smokiness, cinnamon and clove spiciness, with a mellow fresh mouthfeel, with a faint chocolatey accent, and notes of fig, ripe apples and raisin fruitiness, leading towards a wheaty, spicy, mild hop bittering finish.

Cloudy light brown. Dirty fruit aroma. Dry bland with a slight bannana but not enough. Very lightly spiced flavor. Wouldn’t get this again.

Sampled last weekend. Compared to the regular Franziskaner, taste is a lot more sweet. Aroma is similar but appearance is a lot darker brown than normal. Mouthfeel is smooth and consistant with the regular brew. Flavor is more sweet and a little more malty. A great brew but I would probably stick with the regular if I had my choice.
