3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
From an old set of notes I found. "Tastes like some Bazooka-Joe bubblegum that had a fling with a wheat-field. I could drink this all day long...lovin it!". That must have been towards the end of the night.

Appearance: tangerine orange under a tight head which fastly fades into nothing. Swirls with a few meager bubbles.
Nose: tangerine, apricots, and peaches. Not overly sweet with a faint nip of tart kiwi. Spice in the back. Leather and fruit skins in the back. Orange honey flambé.
Palate: sweet, tart, then orange oiled leather. Cinnamon and nutmeg. Chew breads in the back laden with apricot and tangelo chunks. Kiwi in the middle and along the edges. Candied ginger. Flambéed peaches and apricots, skin included. Underlying bitterness of orange peel.
Final Thoughts: not at all what I was expecting in many very delicious ways. I’m not sure I would classify it as a “dunkelweizen” but for now, I’ll pass on style semantics and keep the beer.

Tasted from bottle in nucleated pint glass. Poured a nice, clear copper color with long-lasting beige head. Subtle hops bitterness and aroma, likely noble. Soft, round bready mouthfeel from wheat, nice caramel barley notes as well. Just a little hazy with faint banana and clove yeast esters typical of Dunkelweizen style. A very classy brew.

12oz bottle in Chicago. Spritely Belgian wit flavor over tasty balanced backing. Fresh and green - very floral, belgian yeastiness. Sweet to lightly biter finish. Surprisingly tasty!

It pours a murky brownsih gold with a light white head. There is not much retention or lacing.
The aroma is light with hops and honey, but nothing overpowering.
The taste is also light, small notes of wheat with nothing special. Mouthfeel is light and good drinkablility.

Pours dark brown with tan head, aroma has notes of ginger, clove, and some banana with a touch of chocolate. Banana, some spice, and a thin but slightly chocolatey finish. Not bad.

bottle thanks to Creedon pours hazy brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is wonderful toast, gingerbread, clove, some toffee. Flavor is rich caramel and toasted malts ending with a sharp carbonation and hot pumpkin spice. Nice stuff.

UPDATED: DEC 10, 2010 Draftt. For a dunkelweizen, it is a little light in color. Aroma is wheat, cloves, and citrus. Notes of banana and other spices. Palate is a little harsh. Flavor brings out the banana a little more.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Delicious! floral , fruity, you can’t even tell the style really from a first taste. It comes off as a belgian, or maybe a wheat. Nice blend of fruit and spice.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a cloudy amber with a small biege head. Aroma of spice, fruit and malt. Tastes mainly of spice with fruit, wheat and hops. Nice. Interesting.
