Bottle. Sugary sweet banana and toffee malt aroma. Cloudy brown color with small head. Sweet brown sugar malt, ripe banana and orange flavor. Body decent. Excellent dunkelweizen - would have been almost perfect with more body.

Bottle from mein-biershop.de. Hazy brown color with huge beige head. Toasted malt, banana, earthy notes in aroma. Taste, roasted malt, milk coffee, banana, hints of coffee. Light bitterness in sweet finish. Good.

50cl bottle shared with Kermis. decent white head. Hazy amber pour. nice beer.

Bottle shared from Deanso. Cloudy brown pour with a tan head. Aroma of banana, bread and light malt. Flavour is banana, wheat and bread. Medium bodied with a very smooth mouthfeel and soft carbonation.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Deep marron, with falling white top. Smells carbonated and foamy. It’s very smooth on the tongue. Even out of the fridge it feels a bit warm. Soft. Flavour of wheat, some nut. Not a large flavour. Not compelling particularly, but ultra professional. I still love weisse beers. Not as much as I once did, but you know some loves never die.

Dark brown pour with medium sized off white head. Aroma of wheat, caramel, yeast and bread. Taste of malt, caramel, slightly woody and a tinge of citrus. All the flavours were very muted, with nothing really exciting the taste buds. Very thin mouthfeel. Not overly impressed.

Ett gigantiskt och till synes evigt skum ovan den bärsntensfärgade öl. Citrus, honung och örter möter näsan, i munnen blandas grape och honung framför allt, men även inslag av fruktsallad.

Appearance: Dark brown body, appears clouded, with a smallish, creamy-looking head with a very, very faint beige tint to it.

Smell: Barely perceived, little sniffs of wheat, darkened malts, fruit. Some aromas crank the dial up to 11, this turned it down below 1.

Taste: Bread crusts, some roast, some nuts but the flavor is incredibly mild. Slight wheat twanginess. Pinch of cocoa. Light banana, raisin. Near nil hop character, bitterness. Thinning (a bit watery, even) on the under-carbonated finish with little hints of dark malt and fruit.

Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium-light carbonation.

Overall: Weak offering. I’d rather have their standard weisse, as this just had sooo little going on that it was instantly forgettable.

The typical weiss beer brewed according to an old Bavarian recipe with the unmistakable character of fine cellar yeast. That´s easy, in germany they made a lots of good beer,but this one i dont need to taste again.

500mL bottle, pours a cloudy reddish brown with a big beige head. Loads of bananas on the nose, with clove and fruity esters. Flavour of yeast, some light berries, banana, clove and wheat. Pretty light flavour profile with a light-body. Easy drinking and solid, though nothing special of course.

32oz Growlette, Crafty Draught. Rusty brown color, bright white head. Aroma of bananas and toasted wheat, hint of light citrus. Tastes of creamy wheat, toast, dough, loads of banana, caramel, light clove. Finishes with a light fruitiness of bananas and citrus. (3279)
