Dunkelhefiger, etwas wässriger Beginn. Geringe Herbe, karamellig süffig. Die vorhandene Hopfigkeit ist grasig, was nicht ganz zum Malz passt. Süßliches Finish. 10/9/11/9//9
Earlier Rating: 5/30/2011 Total Score: 2.8
Der erfrischende Geruch gibt sich getreidig, aber auch deutlich säuerlich. Cremig heller Antrunk, trocken und wenig hopfig. Auch die Bitterkeit zum Ende ist eher mild, vorher wird das Getreide dunkler und etwas kernig. Eher unsüffig und behäbis wirkend. Nun herber aber immer noch wenig aromatisch. OK. 11/8/8/8//8

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a hazy amber with a frothy and very lively off-white head leaving quite some lacework. Toffeeish and fruity nose. Medium body, a little subtle roast, lightly yeasty and toffeeish, slightly oxidized. Some cocoa powder. Not too bad but very far from your traditional Dunkelweizen. 230512

Slightly hazy golden colour, small white head. Aroma of malts, citrus, hops. Some apple core. Flavour light bitter, quite sweet, apple, citrus. Lightly cloying. Finish bitter lemon peels and sweet malt. Bit too sweet for my palate, but still quite nice.
