(Bottle via trade with <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/ViewUser.asp?UserID=2 target=blank>CaptainCougar, thanks Tom!) Banana and pepper...Pours cloudy yellowish amber with the requisite enormous off white head in my Paulaner weizen glass. Aroma of strong banana and a bit of clove. Mouthfeel medium-full, quite smooth (bordering on silky). Lots of rather sloppy lacing. Flavor is mostly banana with overtones of pepper and clove. A nice beer and pretty much dead-on for style.

Picked up a single 12-oz bottle at Flanagan’s in Appleton, WI. Pours a semi-clear orangish-caramel brew with a rocky creamy off-white head that has good retention and spotty lacing. Aroma of roasted caramel multi-grain malt, some flowery hops, yeast and a touch of banana. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonation with fruity malt, some citrus, banana, and a touch of yeast. Finish is smooth, semi-sweet with a doughy/banana aftertaste. A pretty decent bottled dunkelweizen.

Fantastic dunkelweizen. Not overly spicy or cloying like many others. Excellent balance, rich and maltly with a crisp finish.

I like this beer, which is AFAIK a true Dunkelweizen. Nice dark amber color, with roasted malt flavor. Only knock is the alcohol taste as it warms.

12 oz from discount liquors in Milwaukee. Orange amber with average white head. Doughy aroma, kind of hot, a lot sweet malt, some wheat. Wheat flavor, sweet malt, alc, dough, fruity, not bad. Lite body but pretty hot. Not a bad overall, but that alc is too strong.

Bottle (at brewery tasting) Pours a cloudy golden amber color with a good-sized white head. Aroma is yeast, some banana, some malt and a little citrus. Taste is crisp & refreshing, with a good dose of yeast, malty sweetness, banana and a hint of citrus.

Pours an X-large tan head that really lasts, sticky, abundent lacing. Seriously hazy, orange hued brew. Nose is banannas, yeast, flowery, just a pleasent fruity aroma. Body is lightly medium, lightly oily on the palate with a good carbonation level, lightly prickly. Fruity bananna flavors first, some lightly sweet caramel maltiness, light toasted grainy wheat notes, light citrus notes, bready. Finish is sorta sweet and fruity. A well done Dunkelweizen! Props to OhioDad for the bottle!

very cloudy golden amber with a full frothy white head. delicious aroma of yeast and wheat. i found the taste a disappointment from the aroma. sweet and crisp on the front. the tastes faded into a slightly watered down coffee flavor. i had hoped for more.
