Amber color with small compact head. The caramel aroma is soft, more Bock than Vienna. The mouthfeel is soft too, thanks to a very light residual sweetness; some caramel flavor and low bitterness, hence a short final.
Simple, but clean.

Bottle. Rich, malty nose, nutty, much like a doppelbock, with honey, chestnut, miso. Pretty deep brown with lace. Fruity, nutty flavor, honey, not too sweet at all, with a dry finish. Well done stuff.

Chestnut meal and honey Dark brown color, murky, with generous compact head. Delicate aroma of malt, smoke, hops, wood. Too much carbonation; at least the mouthfeel is smooth; dry feeling of caramel, cocoa, light smoke; the final is lightly astringent, with very light minty impression, and rather strong bitterness. Well brewed technically, not impressive recipe though.

Bottle. An unclear one, dark amber in color and with a small, dense, light beige head. Quite bananaish aroma with some caramel and a faint herbal touch. Sweet, caramel and banana flavor with some spiced hints. Lightly sourish and lemony. Medium body, quite effervescent. Lasting finish where there’s also some bitterness. A decent dunkelweizen, but nothing more than decent. 120623
