Kaufbeuren Steingadener Dunkle Weisse

Brewed by Aktienbrauerei Kaufbeuren
Style: Dunkelweizen
Kaufbeuren, Schwaben/Bayern, Germany

Bottle. Phenolic bubblegum nose with a little wheat. Lighter banana and toffee. Cloudy chestnut/copper body with a soapy, frothy beige head. Fruity taste is a little more jumbled (and sweeter), figgy mineral water with bananas and clove. Watery body but effervescent, nice plummy notes with just a little touch of chocolate. Yeastiness is nice but should be coming through more. Enjoyable but not great.

Bottle. Large fizzy off-white head that mostly diminished, one ring of lacing, mostly transparent and slightly hazy, carbonation noted, and a golden orange hue. The aroma was malt, bananas, sweet, spicy, and clove. Ditto for the flavor; however, it lost points because it tasted thin and somewhat bland. Tingly mouthfeel and light in body. Was looking forward to this one and it left me very disappointed and not wanting this one again. The aroma outdid the flavor as the flavor just did not cut it for the style. Next!

Aroma of biscuit, banana and clove - all rather mild. Hazy amber color with a fine beige head. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Starts with banana, wheat and clove. Seems to stay with that. Finish is pretty dry, but not astringent. Very good beer.

Bottle. Cloudy chestnut, creamy off-whie head. Spicy bready nose. Good spicy, light fruity notes. Fairly light body, dry finish. Banana roast aftertaste.

Hazy brownish orange. Dirty-white head rapidly fizzles into a jagged-bubbled collar. Leady and irony aromas are dotted with plums, pineapple and faint clove. Rather dull to the nose. Soft yet spritzy carbonation. Flavors are metallic, watery and lifeless from the get go as unripe plums and bananas dominate the forefront and lighten the impact of the wheat. Deceptively dry due to the clove phenols which generate some spicy warmth thereby offsetting the flabby residuals, but the flavors lack definition and fail to gel. Yeast character is heavily gluey and claylike. Finishes with a mild twang of wheat which is accompanied by tangy esters. Disappointingly limp and undefined all around, and no ripe esters or poignant phenols to speak of. Very rudimentary rendition.

from Holiday. golden brown with a fizzy head, sweet malty citrus taste and aroma with a crisp finish.

Bottled(500ml). -The waitress poured it from bottle on the bar. In Kainz Restaurant near Neuschwanstein Castle.
Muddy brown coloured, wheaty cinnamon nose. Malty, light yeast and dried fruity aroma with notes of cinnamon and toffee. Slightly acidic finish. Goes well with Kaiserschmarren (pancakes with raisins and apple sauce).
