Ilzer Dunkel Weissbier

Bottled, pasteurised. Brown amber colour with thin head. I was lucky enough to find the two Ilzer beers in the same bar so could compare, and this is the ugly sister I’m afraid. Looks reasonable, but the flavour impact is almost totally missing. Thin malty and sweet, a rather unfortunate beer. I also noted that no-one else in the bar ordered it.

Not even nearly as good as it’s sister: Ilzer Hefe. Very thin and sour taste of cola with yeast. A great disappointment!

Very yeasty and thin. Like water with yeast.

Very watery and thin. The wheat is not very evident in the aroma nor the flavour (luckily).

Murky orange brown colour. Toffee aroma. Lacks the esters in the pale version.
