Supple, malty and mellow. Its harmonious flavour is the great strength of our dark wheat beer.

A light murky brown with an average head. Sweet wheat malty ester aroma that’s a little too subdued. Toasty caramel and ester flavour, fruity finish, more banana then many dunkelweizens. Nice and refreshing.

Bottle. Pours a nice translucent carmel with an modest off white head. Sweet camel malty aromas. Crisp, sweet and bubbly on the palate. I was expecting a heavy thick beer, but I am pleasantly surpirsed at how light it is. A very tastey brew. Hefe’s are my 2nd favorite style and this on is top drawer. I’m looking foward to my next one.

Bottled. Pours amber and toilet shit brown with a light urine tinge and a dirt white head. Mofo reaks of bread and possibly some yeasty vag. Flavor is well malted with banana, banana bread, and some spices. Body is well malted.

[Bottle] Pours a cloudy gold with a medium tan head. Aroma is wheat, yeast, caramel, and maybe a little musty. Flavor is nicely sweet, with a lot of tart wheat, caramel, raisins, and a little bit of vinous notes.

Pours into a Kapuziner weissbier glass a murky chestnut body with an immense tan head. Good retention and lots of clingy patch lacing. Aroma is fresh baked brown bread, spicy hops, dark fruits, ripe banana, and a hint of clove. Very creamy on the palate, with low medium carbonation and a medium body. Taste is very bready, with notes of tangy wheat, spicy hops, bubblegum, ripe banana and some clove. Dark dried fruits underneath. Very tasty!

The aroma is caramelized orange zest and mild dried dark fruits with some mild herbal spice, it has a nice burnt orange cloudy body with a 2 finger white head, lacing is moderate, tastes like a hefe with a vinous wine like character, like an earthy spanish tempranillo with the citrus zest and spice. I give this good marks because it’s better to me than a regular hefe, which isn’t my favorit style unfortunately. It failed my kit-kat test though. :(
