300ml bottle [simply as "Grolsch Dunkel Weizenbock"]. Hazy, dark amber colour with small to average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Sweet-ish, caramel and wheaty malty as well as slightly phenolic, yeasty fruity aroma, notes of banana, baked banana, some honey. Taste is sweet, wheaty and caramel malty, yeasty fruity and minimally hoppy, notes of banana, baked banana, pear, a touch of red apple, some honey, caramel, a touch of milk chocolate; minimally leafy, hoppy finish.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth, minimally cloying, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation.
Very sweet, quite monotonous, complete lack of spicy aspects - still OK.

Bottle. Murky and sludgy brown with a massive beige head. Ugly for real. Aroma of overripe bananas, wheat and clove. Taste of bananas, caramel, clove, bubblegum, bread and wheat. Low to moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. Almost creamy mouthfeel. I have to admit that Grolsch quite surprised me with this one.

0.45 l bottle from 'AH' (Maastricht), best before February 2025. Very hazy, brown with a large, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, gently yeasty-spicy aroma of caramel, nuts, overripe banana, some clove and hints of cocoa. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently yeasty-spicy and a bit roasty taste of caramel, overripe banana, cocoa, clove, nutmeg and nuts, followed by a short, moderately bitter finish. Medium to full body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Pleasant Dunkelweizenbock, way better than expected.

T: medium malty/wheat base, banana, spicy, bready, caramel, vaguely fruity, medium carbonation, not bad for the style but nothing memorable here, enjoyed.

50cl Fles van AH. Bruine kleur, beige kraag. Banaan, tarwe, caramel, vrij zoet maar niet buitensporig, moutig, donker fruit, bitterzoete finish. Sterke variant van de Grolsch Dunkelweizen van weleer. Degelijk.

Fles gedeeld door Roelzie. Het is een licht troebel noodbruin bier met een dun beige schuim. Het heeft een zoetig caramel achtig aroma. De smaak is zoet, moutig en carmel achtig met een wat gistachtige ondertoon.

Leftover from cooking. Big pop, I missed those. Dark amber, creamy and thick head. Heavy sweet smell, lots of weizen banana going on, caramel. Soft mouthfeel, pleasant. Taste is sweet and more sweet, candy banana, caramel. Ends on a small roasty bitter.
