Mar 18, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Pours a pale brown, orange-tinted with a thin rim in white. Aroma throws a nice crisp classic Weizen yeast aroma. Banana-heavy. Flavor is right in line, with a wonderful combination of freshly slice fall MacIntosh apple, banana puree, and caramelized pear. Very nuanced, juicy and bright. Great flavor profile from the yeast, tinged in a Bananas Foster way with brown sugar and rum. Balanced and crisp. Excellent!

Apr 8, 2009 A flavorful and aromatic dunkelweizen. Aroma was near perfect. Strong banana and clove with yeast and little else interfereing. Pour was a nice cloudy dark brown with a one finger near tan head. Taste was strong and wheaty. Heavy on the banana and clove with just touches of roasted malt and a hint of caramel after it warmed. Not as much carbonation as I would like in a dunkelweizen, but most of CBW beers lack that. All in all, solid but middle of the road.

Apr 19, 2007 Dark coppery mahoganey body, off-white lasting creamy head. Nice sweet fruity wheat body. What is a little stale, but it is okay and the yeasty esters give it a nice character, similar to a good NG wheat. Pretty good.

Oct 3, 2003 Overall this was a nice beer. A bit darker than the average wheat beer and a bit lighter than the average dark beer. As with all Church Brew works beers this was good.

May 20, 2007 my first taste of a dunkelweizen. a very nice dark wheat with moderate carbonation. the malts are a nice complement to the light yeast flavor. i just had a brief taste but this is a really nice flavorful beer. i’ll have to rerate when i’ve had a proper glass.
