| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 19, 2002 I can’t help but compare this with the Weisse. Well, it’s not the Weisse, I’ll say that. The russet colour is a little light, but the head is generous enough. Sweetish banana and sour apple flavours work together to make a light, refreshing rendition of the style, but totally lacking the chocolate or toast notes required for a dunkelweizen to really shine. The flowering, honeyish malts are lacking from the Weisse as well, and the whole thing is just lacking complexity. A good spring patio beer (if it’s above freezing, we’re sitting outside - a Canadian tradition). argo0 (6907), Washington DC, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 16, 2003 Big creamy tan head atop a hazy red-brown. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, wheat, light lemon. Taste is medium sweet, roasty, caramel, wheat. Finish is decidedly roasty. Medium body. Nice beer, but not sure I’d want more than one at a sitting. hopdog (5576), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 18, 2005 Poured a medium to darker copper/brown color with an averaged sized, slightly off white head. Aromas and tastes of yeast, fruits, bubblebum and light caramel. Sweet smelling (but not as sweet on the tongue - somewhat of a light bitter finish). CaptainCougar (5459), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 6, 2003 Pours a dark copper color with a good thick off-white head. Nice German yeast profile in the aroma. Smooth caramel maltiness throughout. Another great German clone from this brewery. Cornfield (4940), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 26, 2006 This poured a hazy caramel body with a respectable beige head. The aroma is sweet wheat and bananas. Light, spritzy mouthfeel. The flavor is wheaty with soft malts, banana, and a low trace of spices. Fairly refreshing.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 8, 2004 Lightly cloudy brown with a tan foamy head. Sweeter caramel flavors mixed with a light banana and lightly citric bite. Refreshing and lighter in malt than many dunkles of this ilk. Tmoney99 (4742), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 14, 2005 Bottle. Clear dark brown color with an average frothy light brown head that dimished quickly. Average roasted malt and light hop aroma. Medium body. Average balanced malt and hop flavor with an average finish. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 7, 2005 Hazy brown pour with big off-white head. Aroma is caramel malt, some dark fruit, hopcit, spice. Tastes caramel malty, with fruit, spice, and a slight tart hopcitric finish. I like this style, and this one is good.
