500 ml bottle, via EDA. Pours a nicely cloudy amber brown body with a frothy one inch beige head. Great nose of banana, sweet brown sugar, light roast, and earthy wheat. Reminds me of banana bread. Nice Hefe flavor with just that little bit of roast and chocolate thrown in to change things up a bit. Very yeasty flavor with lots of banana and a bit of clove on the finish. Mouthfeel is smooth and almost creamy with pinpoint prickly carbonation. These guys are the kings of all things wheat!

Bottle. Poured a large rocky white head over a nutty brown body. Sweet malt ad wheat aroma. The taste was a sweet yeast and malty bread flavor.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy and hazy medium amber color ale with a supper huge off-white foamy head with great retention and good lacing. Aroma of banana ester with some great wheat malt is quite excellent. Taste is very smooth with great notes of banana ester with some lightly sweet wheat malty which provide a great refreshing factor. Full creamy body with great carbonation. One of the best example of the style.

Appearance: Cloudy, muddled brown body with a thinnish, white head. Smell: Dull, earthy spices over malty scents of caramel covered wheat and cocoa with notes of fresh bananas. Taste: Light, dry caramel mixed with a bit of cocoa and a taste of wheat grain. Rich blend of spice flavors: clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Banana esters perk up shortly. Light spicy hops and bitterness. Final hints of malt and spice on the soft, drying finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-high carbonation. Drinkability: A delightful dunkelweizen and a fine example of the style. Go out and get some!

Bottle from BevMo. Murky orangish-brown color with an off-white head. Aroma is yeasty with wheat and sweet malt. Flavor is sweet dark malt, caramel, wheat, yeast, and banana. Medium body, smooth palate. Refreshing. Very enjoyable beer all-around.
