Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier Dunkel

Dark Amber with thick creamy foam.. a very light and refreshing dunkel... I typically prefer higher alcohol content with a bit more flavor, but this goes well with the Hef on a hot summer day

50 cl bottle. Pours brown-amber with big creamy foam. Smells fruity whit yeast too. Taste: nut, cereal and a hint of banana. Good beer.

pours very cloudy red with a heavy citrusy yeast aroma. flavor is sweeter than i expected, almost bubblegum with some spice notes. finish is tangy as expected. pretty good, but a tad too sugary for me.

TAP: brown/grape pour, nice white head. Sweet malt and dark fruit nose, but mild. Taste is wheat, sugar, caramel, maybe a little nut. Somewhat dry.

500 ml. bottle. Pours huge fluffy off white head of poor duration,over a slightly cloudy brownish (SRM 15-20) body.....nose of slight banana/bubblegum, clove.........tastes initially of sweetish roasted malts (toffee, slight brown sugar), then light lemon and finishing clove.....mouth feel is light, carbonation high, finish is dry. I was disappointed. This is not particularly spicy, nor as rich as I had anticipated. There are many better hefes out there.

Dark amber color with a white head. No lacing. Smells of sweet malt and yeast. Taste of very light banana. Mostly caramel, nutty, and bread. Good beer for any day or event.

Aroma of fermented fruit. Dark cloudy apperance. Tastes fermented fruit and jeast. The taste is simular to the speciall taste of belgian strong ales. Not a tasty beer, the fermented fruit is not getting along with the yeast taste at all. This beer hade been in a closet for about three months, the taste could been destroyed by this.

A brown beer with a fine but short head. Salty smell and taste. Small and uninteresting palate. Too little bitters in this slightly sweet beer. Disappointing due to higher expectations.
