Julius Echter Hefe-Weissbier Dunkel

Pour is cloudy light brown with a big old wheaty head. The aroma is toasty with just a touch of hefe characteristics. The flavor is rather light for a hefe and a dunkel. There is some hefe in there, but there’s a lot of caramel, nuts, and bread in there. The carbonation is quite high, even cold.

Bottle from the Gingerman in Fort Worth. Medium brown pour with a big tan head. Lots of wheat and dark fruit aroma. Very nice, bready flavor.

Dark rich amber color; Medium creamy body; Aroma of caramel, brown sugar & malt; Flavor mainly of malt, hint of banana & apricot- some chocolate overtones. Wow – a great dunkel-weiss.

0,5 L bottle. Cloudly, semi-brown color. Aroma is fresh, yeaty. Color and aroma like traditional estonian countryside homebrew. Wheat and yeasty tones in flavor.

Appears almost as a cider color, with apricot edges. Pillowy white head. Aroma is dark surgary sweet. Banana notes, brown sugar, and caramel. mmmMMMMmm very nice flavor to match the aroma. Still lots of banana and carmal, sweet but not overpowering very mellow and tasty.

hazy brown pour. fluffy head that dissipates after a few minutes. Aroma is malty with banana, cloves, molasses, raisins. Flavor is more molasses like sweet maltiness with some nutty/chocolate flavors as well as some chocolate covered banana. I thoroughly enjoy good dunkels and this is no exception.

Bottle. Pours a hazy orange brown with tons of fluffy head. Aroma is malty bannana and clove, maybe a bit frutier than bannana. Taste is wheaty and fruity with some minor chocolate notes coming through in the end. A slight bitterness in the middle as well. This is a new style to me, so it took me a few sips to get used to it, but I do rather enjoy it. Mouthfeel is light and mildly carbonated.
