JDUB (170), Beautiful Venice Beach, California, USA Dec 9, 2007 dark syrup color with tan head and fizzy head. Oats and coffee flavor. banana in the nose. armando629 (954), Budapest, Hungary Dec 2, 2007 Updated: Nov 27, 2008Dark color, strong head. It contains to much roasted malt, the roasted taste dominate the beer, the acidic and banana taste waste away.
At the second rate: Now i had a moaderated sample with a moderated design(the label is not a black one, it is a friendly brown one) and i must update my rate... The taste is moderated too, the dunkel character is easier than before. Better, really good one. Complex and fine body, smooth mouthfeel. Fine roasted malt, banana and spicy taste, clove and vanilla, some cinnamon.Yumm, really fine!!! yeah (7), Aveiro, Portugal does not count Dec 2, 2007 Loved this beer. A little strong and acidic but great taste. You can feel the alcohol and the carbonation is great. Wegro (218), Fresno, California, USA Nov 29, 2007 Smells unsurprisingly yeasty and wheaty, with only hints of malt. Pours a murky dark brown with some floaties if you hold it up to a light. Great looking head with big ol bubbles. After warming up a little it has some nice caramel and hints of chocolate in the typical crisp and wheaty hefe body. I got it from BevMo and got it because the tag for it said WEIZEN BOCK so I was looking forward to that but it must’ve been labeled wrong. I like this more than the Ayinger but only slightly. It has a slightly bigger body but it’s still pretty light like you’d expect a wheat beer to be. Nice price at $2.59 for the bottle. douglas88 (1557), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Nov 29, 2007 .5 liter bottle. Pours a dark brown with a small fizzy white head. The body is quite thin and smooth. The taste is quite like a hefe-weizen, but not citrusy or sweet. A strong wheat flavor with some roasted malt and cocco. Really drinkable and nice. Slipstream (734), USA Nov 27, 2007 Half-liter bottled labeled a dark hefe-weizen, not dunkel - but I think it is the same. Dark brew with a foamy head. Mild to medium hefe flavor with an astringent rye finish. Fairly hi carbonation. Clean, crisp, and tasty. this was my first dunkel, and I would like to try more. llcooldave (309), San Antonio, Texas, USA Nov 23, 2007 Poured a really foamy head and really dark looking. Hard to see if it was cloudy as its so dark but finally was able to see it. Nice toasty malt aroma. Light toasty taste reminiscent of well done toast. High carbonation feel on the palate but surprisingly light. Very drinkable and worthy of future purchases. yarry (370), Waterdown, Ontario, Canada Nov 22, 2007 0.5L bottle, 5.6% a/v
Pours a very dark brown colour with a generous light brown head. The head sticks around for awhile as well. Aroma is chocolate, roasted malt, spice and some fruit (I had a plugged up nose, so maybe im way off) Taste is chocolate, roasted malts, and some spice. There is also caramel and some molasses present. Somewhat thin on the mouth but not detractingly so. This is my first Dunkel, its not bad but i definetly prefer my weisse over it.
