Commercial Description:
Supple, malty and mellow. Its harmonious flavour is the great strength of our dark wheat beer.

From the bottle, pours a hazy reddish brown weird color with a small white head. Nice aroma of bananas a a bit of chocolate, and otherwise like a pretty good hefe. Taste is similar in description to the aroma, with a slightly watery mouthfeel despite being thicker on the palate. I had higher hopes for this one, but I think it might just have been a bit too sweet.

bottle. Pours a hazy copper with a slightly off white head, not much lacing. Nose is somewhat subdued but hints of malt and bananna shine through. Taste is wheat malt but this bottle has a strong taste of oxidation, cardboard. Hopefully I can get a fresher bottle next time, if there is one.

500 mL bottle. Hazy rust-coloured beer. Crisp bubblegum-banana-clove aroma. It tastes like a weizen, but not so much like a dunkel. Sweet, wheaty, yeasty, well carbonated. Some spice and just a touch of chocolate at the end. Good, but could be a little meatier.

Its a good German beer, its got some dark toasted malts, not too hoppy and it goes down real smooth. Weihenstephaner are winner and this one is no exception
