jblendy (518), Midland Park, New Jersey, USA Jan 6, 2008 My bottle is labeled Weisse Dark. Dark and cloudy golden-brown pour with a small white head. Light but pleasant aromas of banana bread, toasted malts, and a hint of bubble gum. Flavor is grainier than expected, with some light fruity esters, a bit of spice, and lots of toasted malts. Palate is medium, semi-sweet, lightly spiced, and slightly watery with some slightly sharp carbonation. Pretty well balanced, but the sharpness throws everything a bit off for me. JB175 (1654), Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 5, 2008 Pretty darker brown color that gives it a W-bock look. Aroma is a powerfully sweet mix of banana, wheat, citrus, clove, and spices. Flavor is heavy on the banana and fruit sweetness with clove and assorted spices dominating over the wheat. Not bad, but I’m not a huge fan of this one. Haslinger (640), Syracuse, New York, USA Jan 3, 2008 I am a fan of Hacker-Pschorr. I like this one, I believe this is the first H-P I have rated but a college buddy loved them and used to make me taste them. would buy again. IlanMan (816), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Jan 3, 2008 not all I have heard it could be. Aroma of spice and grain. Taste of more spice and some nutty aftertaste. I have heard that his beer was a real good one buy it wasn’t anything exceptional. May buy again but wouldn’t go out of my way. cyrenaica (435), Milton, Ontario, Canada Dec 22, 2007 draft

I tried this beer on November 1, 2007 at "Smokeless Joe’s" in Toronto. The beer was a brownish colour with a thick tan coloured head that lasted throughout the beer. The aroma was malt, caramel, and apple flavours. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was a mixture of malt, and apple. shp555 (1680), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Dec 6, 2007 Pours a clear amber color with a white head. Aroma is malt, wheat, clove, honey, and some herbal notes. Flavor is light malt, wheat, clove, and a peppery bitter finish. Walkowiak (21), Northville, Michigan, USA Dec 5, 2007 Bottle. Poured a cloudy, dark hazel with a nice head. Smelled malty sweet. For taste, the high level of carbonation makes the first impression. It also tasted roasty, with some banana. It had a medium mouthfeel. A decent beer, not great. scoobysnak (249), Appleton, Wisconsin, USA Nov 1, 2007 Head hangs around quite a while. Reducing to a layer of bubbles. Strong clove and bananas throughout. Really well done. Would drink it again in a second.
