Bottle, 4.9%. Sweet and malty aroma, almost sugary. Hazy brown colour, small head. The flavour is not as sweet as the aroma suggests. Some malt though, but a slightly dry finish. OK balanced.

500ml bottle from Utobeer. Cloudy dark brown, big thick beige head. Really quite sweet on the malts, a bit like the straight weizen, it lacks any real flavour or character.

Yoghurt and banana in the aroma. Yoghurt flavor, somewhat yeasty. Cherry and mandarin esters. Pleasant weizen.

Bottled at Zwiebel, Esslingen, Baden-Württemberg. Hazy brown coloured. Notes of banana and yeast. A classic Dunkelweizen on the light side.

Sweet but with a dry finish.
