Beer style: Weissbier - Dunkelweizen Ref: ratebeer.com May2024
Common descriptors are Dunkelweizen is the dark version of the regular golden-yellow Weissbier or Weizenbier (more commonly called Hefeweizen in North America), the spritzy, creamy Bavarian wheat beer with pronounced clove, vanilla, banana, apple, bubblegum, and sometimes nutmeg flavors. Dunkel means dark in German (as opposed to weiss, which mean white) and Weizen means wheat. Like a Hefeweizen, Dunkelweizen is made from a mixed mash of wheat and malted barley, but unlike a Weissbier, it also contains a large array of lightly to thoroughly caramelized or roasted malts that gives it both its color and its complexity. |
