riversideAK (1579), Shoreline, Washington, USA May 6, 2008 Brownish colored brew with a nice head. Aroma of roasted wheat in the American Style. Not much fruitiness to speak of. Sweet and wheaty, some roast, chocolate, a light touch of fruit. I prefer more fruit in my Dunkelweizens.
DYCSoccer17 (2013), Davis, California, USA Mar 2, 2008 10 ounce sample on tap at the brewpub. Aroma has some metallic hoppiness with some sweet malts. A little wheat also comes through. I also get a touch of chocolate, although this beer is not overly aromatic. Moderately transparent dark amber body with a smallish tan head. Starts with some vanilla flavors that almost impart a bourbon-like flavor to this. A little astringency is also present. Some dry, wheat flavors come through in the end. Different, not bad. bhensonb (2880), Woodland, California, USA Dec 23, 2007 Draft at the brewpub. Aroma of dark malts. Deep brown color with an off-white ringing head. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Flavor is roasted wheat with some banana. Suggestions of coffee. Finish is quite dry and clean. Citrus notes, perhaps a very, very light clove aspect. It’s clean and refreshing.
