Commercial Description:
Our interpretation of the classic Bavarian style Dunkel (Dark) Hefeweizen. Has big chocolate flavors from the malt, and subtle banana flavors from the yeast. Smooth and easy drinking.

16 ounce sample on tap at the brewpub. Listed as Uber Dunkelweizen...8.6% ABV. Vinous aroma...smells a lot like cabernet. Rather fruity aroma that is quite different. Mostly opaque mahogany body with a small, light tan head. Start is vinous and fruity with some chocolate flavors following in the middle. Definitely some mildly funky astringency and sour flavors in the middle. Finishes with a bit of a milky, roastiness. Rather decadent, but the light astringency and quirky aroma lead me to believe that this is a touch infected. Nevertheless, this seems to work with the beer and it is not too terribly bad.
