| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 18, 2007 On tap at the brewpub on 6/22/07: Transparent dark copper appearance with a frothy, clingy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet caramel malt with a touch of banana and lemon citrus. Starts fairly full and dark caramely sweet with nice bready German yeasty balance. A nice dunkelweizen.

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 1, 2007 Visited Das Bierhaus for their official Grand Opening on June 30. This Hefeweizen Dunkel was an excellent experience. Pours a hazy dark caramel brew with a thick and creamy off-white head. Lacing is sticky on the side of beer glass. Aroma of banana nectar, vanilla cream, caramel, and some sour dough bread. Taste is smooth and creamy, little citrus sweetness, cloves and white pepper. Finish has an excellent balance of hops and fruity esters. After finish, this Hefeweizen Dunkel even has a creamy caramel aftertaste. One of the best Hefeweizen Dunkels to date. badgerben (3605), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 9, 2007 Another growler thanks to Skyview. Brown color with a medium head. Big aroma of wheat, banana and cloves. Sweet, caramelly flavor. The expected banana and wheat are there with a little bit of roasted malt. Excellent brew and great for the style.

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jul 17, 2007 Another from Skyview. This is an outstanding dunkelweizen, just what the style should be. The aroma has considerable wheat and banana, as well as light citrus. Flavor is really good. Very light roasted grain, and abundant wheat, citrus, and banana here as well. Thick and grainy texture, it reminded me of New Glarus Black Wheat. Sweet, but not with a sugary flavor. Thick and full mouthfeel. BDR (2168), Roseville, Minnesota, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 9, 2007 Thanks to skyview for sharing. Bannan nose with cloves and wheat of course. Dark brown color with minimal head. Body similar to the aroma in flavor. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 3, 2009 On draught at the brewpub in Menomonie: Poured a clear brownish colour with a two finger sized off white head. Firm and malty with brown sugar, cinnamon and something that finishes tart. Cranberry and sour cherry for sure. Aroma is really nice, semi sweet with some toast on the nose. It was easier to distinguish different tastes with these beers being served slightly warmer then normal. tennisjoel (951), Shakopee, Minnesota, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 20, 2009 As with the altbier, this one had some diacetyl in it as well. Not nearly as overpowering as the alt, but it still detracted from the overall experience. Some fruitiness noticed with typical hefe qualities. However, based on the diacetyl, this was much less drinkable than the regular hefeweizen, which was pretty good and much better by comparison.
