BeerVirgin72 (778), Pataskala, Ohio, USA Jun 3, 2007 My 250th rating...Stopped by a local German Rest. here in town. Poured from bottle. Had no idea there was such a thing as a dark hefe. I really enjoyed it. Poured a very dark brown with large head that lasted a while...taste was wheat and malts and a bit of spice. Very good compliment to the German food. Maria (6056), Thisted, Denmark Jun 2, 2007 Hazy, dark brown with a huge head. The aroma has a discrete wheaty note and a light sourness and the flavour has notes of malt and a bit of wheat and caramel. It’s a bit too anonymous, but if you aren’t yet into wheat beers, it’s a nice place to start. greenmanalishi (296), Leicestershire, England May 26, 2007 pours dark brown with fluffy, off-white head. roasted malts and some weak fruit flavours. dry finish, overall fairly unmemorable though. waolsen (1220), Littleton, Colorado, USA May 24, 2007 bottle. brown/cranberry pour with thin head. sour malts, raison, floral hops, musky, spice aroma. medium body. fruit throughout. balanced well. strong malt presence. slight banana and spice but fairly mild. solid but nothing out of the ordinary. cking (1012), North Canton, Ohio, USA May 21, 2007 Rated 7/3/06: Newly stocked item at a local store, picked up a single. Even with the glass tilted an enormous fluffy head sat atop a dark cola colored beer. After a few minutes the head settled and a nice looking glass of beer sat in front of me. Nice and aromatic sweet yeasty scents are easily detected. This one is definately different from the other hefe’ and dunkel-weizens where as it doesn’t seem to contain a large presence of banana and clove esters. Although unique it is still very appealing. Mouthfeel is better than average, very smooth but somewhat dry. Flavor is good and surprisingly mellow for this style. Seems balanced and the sweetness from the aroma carries through. Not the best I’ve sampled but well worth picking up. Kirill (264), Durham, North Carolina, USA May 20, 2007 light malt and spice aroma, albeit too light... good weizen but nothing outrageous Carl99Fan (186), Suwanee, Georgia, USA May 15, 2007 Pours dark brown, with red highlight. Medium tan head. Dark malty flavor, but not too dark. Medium carbonation. Got better as it warmed. Really enjoyed this one. krysztofar (344), belleville, Illinois, USA May 11, 2007 Pours a heavy brown with a thick head that takes its time disappearing. smell is yeasty and sweet like dried dark fruits. taste is mildly sweet and malty. rich and smooth with a long finish and crisp bittering hops. well carbonated.
