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.

pours murky medium brown with a large off-white head. Aroma is malty of carmel and yeast notes of leather. Flavor is sweet and carmel but balanced finishes on the bitter side and short. Light to medium bodied, watery and livley with a clean finish.

Hazy caramel color like a frappe coffe with a medium-sized off-white head. Typical aroma of a hefe-weissen, fruity with notes of banana, bread and honey. Flavor was a bit tart, of lemon, watery and flatly carbonated.

Pours a hazy light brown/orange color. Head is big creamy white with medium retention. It laces pretty well. Aroma is typical for a Hefe-Weizen: full of fruity esters. It shows notes of banana, vanilla, wheat and light spices. Enticing. Taste is sweet with a slightly tart finish. It has smooth banana and vanilla flavors with soft herbal notes and a cidery hint in the end. Very smooth, velvety mouthfeel. Finish is a bit chalky. Low carbonation. Alcohol unnoticeable. A good Dunkelweizen but probably not the best bottle.

Standard issue to look at – light chocolate brown with no head to speak of. Sweet wheat beer notes on the nose, quite attractive. Thins out a touch in the palate as some drying characters take hold. Very similar to the Schnieder in this respect but the beer remains very drinkable.

Hazy unclear brown with fine creamy lasting head. Sweet malty taste (roasted) and aroma. Yeasty - wheat. Banana. Medium body. Easy sweetness and light hops. Very pleasant!

Pours a cloudy light brown with tints of gold and amber. Head was off-white and nice and thick. The aroma was yeasty, spicy and even slightly herbal. The flavor was spice and herbs followed by a mildly sour finish.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy tawny with an average sized frothy off-white lasting head. Aroma is heavy malt (bread, straw, nutty), light hops (grass), average yeast (dough, musty) and banana. Short duration, light sweetness, acidity and bitterness. Medium bodied, slick texture, lively carbonation.
