Apr 19, 2009 Tap at 5 seasons North. Pours a deep dark woody brown with a good beige head- fades a bit over time. Aroma is banana and clove-typical hefe yeast, with some spritzy and spicy phenolics - peppery and zesty with earth and a good doughy deep caramel and nutty malt character. Flavor is initially sweet with caramel malts, toast, and bread with more banana and clove and a doughy light chocolate nutty hint. Very smooth overall with a slight salty slick kick that I get from a few dunkels- nice. Pretty good for a dunkelweizen.

Jan 4, 2009 Appearance: Dark brown, near black body with some slight garnet-hued edges and a smallish, off-white head.
Smell: Aroma smelling of chocolate bars and caramel-covered wheat with only a faint note of banana.
Taste: Roasty wheat flavor with tastes of chocolate and weak coffee. Bits of dark caramel sweetness on-hand. As it warms a bit, a more apparent wheat tanginess develops. Very light banana fruitiness. A drying nuttiness emerges even as the chocolate persists. Vague spicy hop character, though almost no bitterness. Finishes dry with an earthy taste of wheat and chocolate.
Mouthfeel: Medium-plus body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Quite nice! More out-and-out chocolate flavor than I find in most dunkelweizens. It makes for a nice surprise, like finding a piece of chocolate on a hotel pillow.
That was a piece of chocolate on the hotel pillow, right?

Jun 6, 2007 Dark Brown and Hazy. Looks like a dirty, muddy coke. or a chilled espresso. Very unfiltered. Aroma of roasty malt.. and something?..(unpeeled ripe plaintain AKA Ripe Platanos Maduros) and not necessarily the coffee bean but the whole plant. Flavors of roasted malt, chocolate, finished w/ coffee. medium bodied. My new "5" fave! WORD
