Jan 11, 2007 12oz bottle pours light brown with a short tan head. Aromas of caramel malts, a touch of chocolate, brown sugar, raisin, and a little bit of molasses. Flavor is caramel sweetness. Lots of malty flavors, some molasses, and a little raisin. Overall this tastes pretty good to me but it doesn’t taste much like a dunkelweizen. Not much in the way of bannana clove and bubblegum there. More like a winter warmer to me but it isn’t bad just doesn’t fit the style. Medium body with a dry finish. Pretty drinkable though and one of the better shiners i’ve tried..

Jan 10, 2007 From the bottle courtesy of santa, pours a dark brown with a bit of redness to it and a thin but resiliant white head and pretty decent lacing. Malty, earthy aroma. Kind of disappointed in the lack of taste in this one. Cold or luke-warm, there’s just a bit of maltiness for flavor. As it warms further, there’s a bit of chocolate in there, but not much.

Dec 29, 2006 I always look forward to this winter seasonal form the Little Brewery in Shiner. I been a fan of this beer since the days of it’s original name Shiner Winter Fest. Nice malty feel and taste with a slight cocoa finish.

Dec 29, 2006 Bottled. Biggest impression was the (over)carbonation, straight from the pour. Decent dunkel but the flavors seemed fairly light and muted.

Dec 27, 2006 I didn’t love it. ghastly sweet up front is something I just can’t get past. mellows towards the end and reveals a few nice flavors.

Dec 21, 2006 Dark brown with a quickly receding tan head. Banana with a mild sweetness to the aroma. Heavily carbonated. Bread and roasted malts with a bit of chocolate creeping in towards the finish. Decent dunkel but too carbonated and the flavors are too mild.

Dec 19, 2006 Pretty plain tasting wheat, but what can you expect from some lager guys. Not nealr as dark tasting as it is looking, a little dissapointing, and a little keg tasting, even from the bottle.
