Kapuziner Weissbier Schwarz

Brewed by Kulmbacher Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dunkelweizen
Kulmbach, Germany

Misty dark brown colour, foamy créme head, full dark weizen, still lots of fruit and fresness, and a bitter finisch with cooked vegetables, and wood burn.

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy fine to medium sized tan colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent strongly carbonated dark brown colored body and a good thick lacing. The mild aroma contained notes of soft brown malt. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The nice flavor contained notes of nutty and was semi-sweet.

Bottle, bought @ Metro, Kolding.
Wow! This is a pretty dunkelweizen! Deep, brown with little particles. A fine, medium, very firm creamy head on top - slightly off-white. Aroma is sweet with light banana, some roasted malts and lots of chocolate. Relatively high in carbonation, but still rather soft. Perhaps it is a bit thin? Flavour is nice with a touch of fruity tartness, mixed with sweet banana and lots of sweet chocolate. Overall, a very nice dunkelweizen.

[2.14.08] Lovely muddy dark murky bread-pudding like pour with a large frothy beige head with good staying-power, great looking dunkelweizen. Great chocolate, cinnamon, and toffee aroma. Great toffee/chocolate malt flavor which is wonderful from the dark wheat malt. Some sticky sweet dark caramel too. Lots of yeast on top of the darker flavors and in the finish. Banana is also present underneath and softens it up a bit. Slightly unpleasant metallic aftertaste. Body is a little thin and under-carbonated. Other than that, this is one of my favorite weisse beers! 9.5.8.3.17 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . [rerate 12.22.09] 8.5.8.3.16

Dark black beer, that shimmers a ruby color with direct light. tan head lingers a while then leaves behind some nice lacing. Smells of roasted malts and banana bread. Some sour notes upfront that dissolve into more of the banana bread flavors experianced in the nose. Leaves a slight residual sweetness on the tongue. Good stuff.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown almost black color with a longlasting off-white head. Roasted malty coffee aroma with some wheaty hints. Sweet roasted malty chocolate flavor with some fruity wheat hints. Smooth mouthfeel with a roasted malty finish with some hints of smoke.

Bottle. Good stuff i thought. This had a lot more roastyness than your average dark wheat, and i guess the name would suggest that is more towards a Schwarz than a dunkel, and the flavour agrees. This was like a good half and half. Half schwarz and half hefeweizen. Very nice indeed.. Some nice smoky flavours also come through as well.

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Very roast-malty aroma, flavor the same way. Very malty and smoky - not a good dunkelweizen.
