BMan1113VR (1122), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA Jul 15, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Pours a cloudy dark brown with an off-white head and lots of lacing. Aroma of clove, burnt malts, caramel and toast. Tastes of clover, banana and caramel. A bit mouthcoating. Nothing special for the style, but the alcohol is very, very well hidden. SamGamgee (628), Isla Vista, California, USA May 9, 2008 Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy brown color with a purple tinge and small head. Big banana and clove aroma with a caramel and sweet maltiness under it. The mouthfeel is really nice: thick and really creamy with lower carbonation, almost like sipping cream. It keeps the components of a good dunkelweizen and intensifies them without any noticeable alcohol. Nice caramel and tough of spice; maybe a little too intense in the banana though.
