Deepest ruby, almost clear with faint red highlights, tan head. The aroma is dark burnt sugars, qiute a bit of harsh alcohol and some rubbery yeasty notes. The taste is unsweet relatively easy drinking dark sugars, treacle / molasses, a touch of chcolate muffins, a good deal of warming alcohol and boozy bitterness. Not much weizen in all of this. It actually drinks qiute nice as dark boozy ale, but you're gonna be disappointed if you expect some kind of Aventinus from this one.
