Angenehm malzig-hopfiger Antrunk, wirkt recht frisch, auch der säuerliche Unterton fügt sich gut ein. Etwas einseitiger wird das Bier im Mittelteil, in dem das Bier seine Spritzigkeit etwas verliert, das hefige Aroma wird hier etwas schwächer, ist aber dominierend. Leicht säuerlich wirds dann aber doch noch, außerdem ist im Abgang ein röstmalzerner Ton erkennbar. Nicht schlecht, durch den hohen Preis wirds aber bei einer Flasche bleiben. Test vom 23.12.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 10,12,12,12,13,12 - 11,85

An unclear dark orange beer with a light orange head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of banana, but also notes of oranges. The flavor is sweet with a medium presence of banana, while the body is a bit thin.

Bottle: Reddish amber coloured, off-white head, quickly diminishing; fruity nose (bananas, cloves), some "barrique-like" notes detectable; sweetish, a bit tart flavour, soft MF, pretty light bodied; short fruity finish with a faint sharpness or acidity. Drinkable, but not very well balanced Weizen.............

500 ml bottle, as "Duckstein Rotblondes Oberbräu", bought at KaDeWe, Berlin. Seems to be brewed at Holsten Brauerei, Hamburg (my bottle), as well as Feldschlösschen Braunschweig (both Carlsberg owned). Amber colour, large and lasting off-white head, some lacing. Caramel aroma with some flowery aromatic hops, notes of brown bread too. Moderate carbonation, soft malty flavour wth some brown bread notes, decent hops in the finish. Pleasant and easy drinking "altbier" (well, it’s top fermented, and it’s German).

500 ml bottle, bought at KaDeWe, Berlin. Murky brown colour, large off-white head (but relatively moderate for a hefeweizen), does not last "forever". Moderate carbonation. Lovely cloves and banana aroma, hints of dried fruits, oak and fresh brown bread. Flavour is bready and fairly dry, moderate notes of cloves, mouthfeel is relatively watery and bland. Does not quite deliver what the aroma promises. Probably better with food than on its own.
