chicagodri (485), Chicago, Illinois, USA Feb 2, 2008 At tap @ Piece. Dark thick brown with a thin tan head. The aroma is of banana and cloves. Sadly, the beer smelled better then it tasted. I thought it had a little too much carbonation. drewbeerme (1790), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jan 26, 2008 on tap at piece. pours murky brown with tan head. nose of cloves, banana, and rum raisins. flavor has nice dark fruits, touch of chocolate, and cloves. palate is a bit short. lively carbonation. tasty indeed. AndyAle (5), Chicago, Illinois, USA does not count Jan 9, 2008 Served in a 12oz. footed weizen glass, cute. Aroma of banana, clove, munich malt, and a faint bubblegummy finish. Hazy brown with a dense tan lingering head. Banana and esters on the palate initially then the flavors of dark wheat and malt present themselves; finishing with the flavor profiles of weizen yeast. For a double dunkel it’s quite refreshing and inviting! BeerandBlues2 (2473), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Feb 14, 2007 Draught. Pours cloudy dark brown with a spare fizzy off-white head, mostly diminishing, spare lacing. Aroma is average malt (bread, toffee), average hops (grass), heavy yeast (dough) with notes of banana and pineapple. Full bodied, alcoholic texture, average carbonation and a bitter finish. Average duration, moderate sweetness, acidity and bitterness; nice roasted nutty and caramel flavor. Drnk_McDermott (1545), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA Jan 30, 2007 Draft at Piece. I’m told "Double D" refers to it being a "Double Dunkel Weizen." An Imperial Bock, if you will. Pours an intense dark body in a midget weizen glass. The head disappeared in the time it took me to try my "Dark Bier" taster. Big big big big big weizen smell. Taste is of a Bananas Foster, extra rum, please. Then there’s plenty of wheat beir texture, too. A little spice, a lot of alcohol, esters and a touch of dark malt. A Hacker-Pschorr’s evil twin. Finished with a touch of brandy aftertaste.
