Paulaner Hefeweissbier Dunkel

Brewed by Paulaner Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: Dunkelweizen
Munich, Germany

Garrafa, 500 ml. Coloração marrom turva, com um bom creme bege. Notas de cravo, frutas, banana, fermento e torrefação. Paladar levemente amargo. Bom conjunto. Cerveja agradável e refrescante.

On tap at the Castle. Taps a brownish orange colour with a large beige head. Aroma of typical banana and clove, with a hint of spices and fruits. Flavour is really the same, with a decent malty aftertaste. Not as much bread flavour/character as I tend to look for. Extremely effervescent, the carbonation can quickly fill one up. Enjoyable, but I don’t think this style is really "my thing", but I can tell it’s a well-made example of it, so I’m still giving it a fair rating.

Pours a dark hazy brown color. Aromas of bread, malt, and some fruit. Flavor has a touch of sweet malt and clove, I think. Overall, not to bad.

Long-lasting head is creamy. Color is hazy dark orange. Aroma is strong with banana, sweet malts and yeast. Flavor which contains much banana and a bit roastes malts is acidic. Palate is light-medium-bodied and carbonated. Maybe a bit watery in the end.

0,5l bottle. Nice nutty brown color with typical cream-like head. Aroma includes banana, wheat, flavor is dominated by malty sweetness and a certain metallic touch.

On tap. Spicey malt aroma, with some fine wheat present too, hazy brown, traces of gold throughout, a tiny toffee head and some lovely lace. Flavour has a toasty caramel, malt start, a gorgeous wheat infusion, banana, nutty, plenty of spice also. Very well balanced, medium bodied, tongue tinglingly good, bitter towards the finish. Terrific! A real treat @ The Black Forest Restaurant in My hometown of Hamilton!

On tap at The Castle on King, in Kitchener, Ontario- Pours chestnut brown topped with a frothy beige cap. Nice lace. Yeasty, bubble gum nose with plum, lemons, banana, and wheat with clove. Quite tasty with fruity yeast, bubble gum and candy flavours, with rye bread and just a bit of spice towards the finish. Sweet, refreshing, satisfying Dunkelweizen.

Very nice wheat and sweet Munich malt aroma, average for a dunkelweizen. Frothy head, cloudy and chestnut dark brown pinetree like in colour. A bit worse than the Hefeweizen counterpart. Yeasty, brown malty, and sweet. Mellow but also slightly accidic from its effervescence. Kind of intriguing, strange aftertaste (a bit flat though).
