| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 7, 2006 500 mL bottle. Pretty dark amber with a big frothy head. Aroma of banana, bubblegum, and clove. Flavor was the same with a medium mouthfeel and a good sweet finish. Awesome dunkel. I would love to try this fresh on tap in Munich. alabamajohn (67), Alabama, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 5, 2005 What a delicious beer! Very fruity flavors and aromas. Orange, bananas and lemon was detected as was some yeast. Wonderful! shrubber85 (2912), Wallhalben, Germany
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 4, 2005 Bottle. Molasses malt and banana-peach aroma - very nice. Cloudy orange-brown with moderate head. MIld sweet-sour malt and banana/apple flavor. A bit on the weak side. Would have gotten a near perfect score if it had a stronger dark malt flavor. Probably much better fresh. Still along with Franziskaner, the best German dunkelweizen you’ll find in the states. This rating in memory of Dortmunder - a great rater. You will be missed. jb (1043), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 3, 2005 Hazy orange with off-white head. Yeast, apple, banana aroma gives way to malty caramel and banana palate and a delicate taste of hops in the finish. Ahh the subtlety of German beer. newtrip (55), USA

Nice roasted taste with some spicy clove notes and hint of banana in the finish for me. Nice satisfying wheat taste. This is a beer I could drink a lot of. A nice session beer. Taste is enough to be plesant, but not so much that you can only drink one of these beers at a time.
