Hacker-Pschorr Dunkle Weisse

Brewed by Paulaner Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dunkelweizen
Munich, Germany

Draught @ beerbistro, Toronto: My first draught sample at beerbistro, sounded like my kind of thing. Poured a bright orange-brown with a good foam head on it. Aroma of caramel-sweet malt with yeast and citrus fruit, precisely what I was hoping for. Taste is perhaps milder than you’d expect but very well assembled and balanced. Great sweetness, not overly carbonated, with generous amounts of citrus, banana, and clove. Great stuff.

draught: bours dark brown, but it was not the best pour by the bartender. the head was minimal. Aroma was of sweet malt, slightly spicy with banana mixed in there. Flavor are a mirror of the aroma. Crisp however. medium body. Not overly heavy.

Very good dunkelweizen with light wheat and banana flavors. Very smooth, slightly roasted flavor. Good carbonation. Sweet up front and on the finish. Thick and chewy mouthfeel. Very enjoyable.

Nice Hefe aroma with hints of fruit and banana. A bit of malty backbone under an essentially very refeshing Weizen. A bit light palate however that is the intention.

12 oz bottle via trade with RegallacMC (thanks Paul).Pours a hazy copper color with a large foamy head that leaves a lot of chunky lace. Bready aroma with notes of orange, caramel and a bit of alcohol. Thin mouthfeel.Sweet wheat flavor with a crisp semi-dry finish and a bit of a fleeting wheat & bananna in the aftertaste.

bottle. Aroma: Caramel, toasted malt, vanilla, slight banana and a hint of nectarine. Appearance: Dark amber in color and slightly hazed. Head was light beige, full, and mousselike. Head lasted almost to the end of the glass. Nice lacing. Flavor: A subtle bready flavor, caramel, vanilla, and a touch of bubblegum. Banana and clove more prevalent in the flavor than the aroma. Flavor is pretty sweet right until the finish where a light sourness comes in. Palate: Medium bodied with a somewhat creamy texture. High carbonation. Finish was clean and had a slight crispness. Overall: This is a decent dunkelweizen that hits all the expected flavors. Could have had a little more banana/clove in the flavor and a little more richness in the mouthfeel.

17oz bottle-pours a light tan head with red color. Aroma is caramel malt. Taste is caramel medium malt, minor hops. Good carbonation.

From a 500 ml bottle. Poured amber brown with an enormous head that lasted seemingly forever. Very little nose and what there was a very nice malt, with a hint of sugar, bananas, and vanilla. Very nice mouthfeel and good flavor. Very nice to drink.
