Feb 18, 2005 Brown. Aroma isn’t very typical for a dark wheat. It avoids any yeasty, banana/clove aspects but its dark malt aromas are profound (chocolate) along with hints of red apples. Taste is full of sugar covered raisins, milk chocolate and grapes. Quite honestly, this doesn’t seem like a wheat beer to me at all but much more a sweetened dunkel or something else that tastes bizarre. Pretty terrible for the style.

Oct 2, 2007 A middle of the road dunkel. Pour was a dark brown with a one finger off white head. Aroma was roasted malt and almost chocolate. In a blind smell taste I would have guessed porter. Taste was nice and carbonated with roasted malts, coffee and banana all coming in and out. Not as complex as some of the other German dunkels but good.

May 7, 2008 Pour is a dark brown with a large tan head. Aroma is of caramel malts and a coffee but everything is very slight. Flavor is creamy with some dark fruit and a roasted after taste. Nothing complex here and pretty standard.

Jul 2, 2003 6/20/03, bottle, Berlin. Gotta love those German wheats. This is a dunkel wheat, dark brown, cloud and completely opaque with a large tan foamy head. Rich malty aroma, nutty with hints of citrus, wheat and maple. Complex hoppy, wheaty, caramelly flavor - smooth and delicious. Medium to full body, lightly carbonated and refreshing.

May 11, 2008 Pours a dark hazy brown color. Aromas of bread, malt, and some fruit. Flavor has a touch of sweet malt and clove, I think. Overall, not to bad.

Nov 1, 2005 Hazy dark brown hue, with a rocky tan-colored head, yeasty, chocolatey accent, toasty malt and toffee aromas folow through on a medium-bodied palate with a note of molases, brown sugar, spicy, cinnamon, fruity notes of date, prune, caramel malt, leading towards a sweety malty finish.

Aug 14, 2004 Definitely a classy bottle-conditioned Dunkelweizen, with nice slightly nutty caramel notes alongside some wheaty tanginess, just citric above the vienna-ish malt. I swear also there’s a nice spicy and tad floral bit of noble hops drying out the finish. Aroma is a bit subdued compared to the fairly robust flavor. Yum.
