3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 bartlebier (523) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - JUN 10, 2013
50cl fliptop, Maruhn. 2nd time I had this in the last half-year, 1st occasion must have somehow passed by unnoticed, although this is a surprisingly unique and tasty brew. Pours a near black mahogany with generous beige, krausen-like indented foam. Roasted malts imparting caramel notes, while the dry astringent mouthfeel remains intact; highly enjoyable unfiltered/"Keller" creaminess, complemented by banana/peach puree sweetness. Body remains pleasantly light for an unfiltered Dunkelweizen. Dominant in aroma, taste and mf becomes an incipient smoky sensation which is best grasped, by a stroke of olfactory genius, as "burnt match" (Allen).

Black and hazy, nice stable white head. Smell is too neutral for a weizen. Maybe a bit sourness and yeast, but quite boring. The taste is better: yeasty, pepper, a bit chocolate, a bit roasty. Medium body and fizzy.
