This dark Weissbier retains its aromatic character thanks to the select choice of Hallertau aroma hops and highest quality Bavarian wheat and dark barley malts.
Its characteristic, distinctive maroon colour is a feast for the eyes. Then there’s the opalescence and fine structure of the yeast turbidity. The perfect complement is provided by the very creamy, fine pored head. This dark Weissbier from the Holy Mountain will delight connoisseurs with a harmonious interplay of fruity odours, above all ripe bananas and pineapple, with undertones of caramel and cocoa.
Andechser Weissbier Dunkel teases the tongue with a delicate tanginess carried by a round, soft body. A light caramel sweetness harmonises well with the fine hoppy bitterness. It concludes on a soft and refreshing note (original extract: 12.5%, abv: 5.0%).

Sehr dunkle Farbe, dunkler Schaum, ordentliche Menge Hefe - optisch schon mal toll. Im Antrunk herb-malzig, im Mittelteil kommt dann die Süße etwas durch. Recht weich, recht lecker. Viel, viel besser als das helle Weizen von Kloster Andechs.

Had this at Andechs am Dom, Munich, Wednesday 29th May 2019, not sure if this was bottle or two dispense, I just asked for it and it was served. Pours a hazy conker brown colour with a cappuccino coloured head. Cocoa and a touch of banana on the nose. These two show more so in the mouth, though the cocoa is actually more milk chocolate. Soft in the mouth, excellent beer.

Dark brown with a creamy sand colored head that subsides but lingers for the duration. Chocolate banana aroma with noticeable clove and a yeastiness that trends towards old shoe. Taste is sweet, a touch spicy, yeasty, with a mild, dry bitterness at the end. Chewy feel and yet it goes a bit watery at the finish. Overall, solid for the style.

Draft at Andechs am Dom. Pours an unclear, ruby, brown color, with a big, foamy, tan head. The aroma is mild cocoa, banana esters, sharp cloves, black bread, and mild anise. Sweet and yeasty, with a sharp bitterness. Light to medium body, with a crisp, clean finish. This is a lovely, yeasty, chewy beer.

Bottle - Dark sugary notes with a touch of banana. Deep Amber brown with a rich off white head. Dark sugars and only a touch of banana and Clove. Esters in check make this quite nice.

This review was imported from my RateBeer ratings.
500 ML bottle.
AROMA: Scents of banana, ginger bread, and caramel.
APPEARANCE: Pours an opaque dark brown with a light-tan, tight, frothy head that dissipates very slowly. There is a fair amount of sediment, so be prepared if you're someone who doesn't care for "floaties".
TASTE: Lightly-sweet, which is surprising given the look and smell of the beer, as I was expecting it to be much sweeter.
PALATE: Light-bodied, thin, and medium carbonation. The finish is very dry.
OVERALL: Not bad, but I would have liked a little more body and less dryness.
