Bottle at Löwenbräu Buttenheim as Löwenbräu Buttenheim Weissbier Dunkel. Dark brown and hazy with a nice, creamy head. The aroma has notes of clove and whet, not so much banana. The flavour has sweetness, notes of cloves, wheat, caramel and little banana, and the flavour ends on a note of cloves. It’s nice and has a lot more personality than most dunkel weizen’s.

May 22, 2007 Bottled at Zauberberg zum Gerch, Hof, Bavaria (as Löwenbräu Buttenheim Dunkelweizen). Cloudy very dark brown. Aroma of toffee, banana and stale butter. Sweet with rounded mouthfeel, somewhat metallic. Short finish. Disappointing in that I’ve had a couple of Löwenbräu Buttenheim beers in my pre-Ratebeer days that I absolutely loved.

Dec 13, 2006 (bottle, as Altbayrisches Export-Weizen, with thanks to DerDoppelbock!) Hazy , dark amber to brown colour with a huge foamy off-white head. Dusty, slightly sweet, slightly wheaty aroma with notes of banana, clovy phenols and a faint touch of caramel. Light-sweet, minimal-sour flavour, light bodied with a crispy carbonation. Wheaty and fruity taste, not very “Dunkel”; moderately dry and slim fruity finish. Unspectacular and probably coloured.
