Bottle at home. Dark amber colour with small golden head. Aroma is spicy, caramel, bit of smoke even, but a fire burning something interesting, not your regular meaty smoke smell. Some dark fruit there too, burnt toast. Taste is interesting, strange creaminess, with a roasty and slightly burnt malty finish. Maybe even slightly bubblegummy in the sweetness right at the start. Quite unusual. Maybe a bit light bodied, but not that off-putting. Something savoury in there too, maybe my usual soy sauce. Brown bread. Quite its strangeness.

Bottle from Antarabangsa, Penang. Poured a hazy medium amber colour with a big frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, yeasty, citrus fruits. The flavour is citrus, light acidic, with a crisp, grainy, mineral, light fruit, light dry floral hop palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

330 ml bottle from a mall in Utsunomiya. Pours hazy brown with a small head that is gone in a few seconds. Aroma is quite faint, some yeast, a bit of sour alcohol, tropical fruits. Taste is more roasty, some toffee and black bread - mixed with some notes of sour yeast. A bit of hop bitterness remaining on your tongue at the end. Overall pretty decent, nicely drinkable beer.

Bottle from Yamaoka. Medium brown with orange, lowish head. Cloudy. Aroma of chocolate, banana, spice; medium richenss. Rich malt flavor, lots of chocolate, some caramel, bananas. Slightly sweet but rather well balanced with a bit of sour. Full palate, relatively heavy. Well made dunkel weizen--not spectacular, but nice.

amber color with a nice off-white head. Sweet malty aroma, fresh fruits, cherry, and a touch of oak. Nice body. Flavor isn’t as sweet or fruity as the aroma, more malts and iron. Nothing memorable good or bad with this one.
