Commercial Description:
Literally "dark wheat beer", it is made from the same wheat malt and yeast as the Weissbier plus a little something which gives a more pronounced malty aroma and flavor. Dunkel is chocolate dark with a first hint of sweetness, but a dry finish.

Tried this years 6.3% version. Lovely big banana and spicey clove aroma that continues through to the flavour. Murky amber brown in colour with a very vigorous fluffy head. Fruity and spicey flavour with a dry finish that leaves you wanting more! To my mind the best of the Emersons range so i bought a dozen!

Tremdous stuff, A strong a drak and a wheat beer all in one, what a mix yet not overpowering. Hopefully following a trophy at BrewNZ to become a regular drop rather than just a seasonal!!

This beer really is a unique stunner. Another great Emerson’s weiss! Fun food options like brunch pancakes, pistachios and roast veges. Leans toward the sweet and softens as it warms. Fantastic. Aroma: sweet golden kiwifruit, lemon drops, chewy caramel lollies with a sour, lactic, subtle bananery spicy yeast. A large billowy "French vanilla" head over a cloudy, almost opaque rusty brown. taste is sweet and sour: fried bananas, faint kiwifruit, milk choc / mild-med choc or cocoa under with earthy yeastiness. The body begins prickly on the tongue - age may assist. Gulps of med-full, quenching satisfaction. I’d serve this beer to anyone!

Bottle. At last I get to try this elusive beer! Pours a dark hazy brown with golden highlights and a medium golden head of fine bubbles. Estery aroma of wheat, chocolate and banana. Sweet wheaty palate with flavours of chocolate, banana, and bubblegum. Perfect carbonation and medium body. An excellent dunkelweizen.
