Fast receding dirty-beige head over orange-chestnut beer, hung with micro-UFO’s. End of bottle virtually opaque. Bready and sourish - like sourdough bread; oxydized speculoos. Not very inviting nose. Bitterish/sourish flavour, like old sourdough bread with some bitterish spice. Laurel flavour. Very faintly burning MF, medium bodied, quite slick. I fear my sample might be beyond its BBD, but no date to be found on the bottle. Bottle seemed underfilled, too. Danke, Sebastian!

Refrigerated bottle poured into a glass. Nice lacing, highly carbonated, and medium fluffy head. Pours a hazy slightly muddy dark golden. Taste is lots of wonderful malt (caramel), banana, some clove, and a hint of bready wheat. First bottle I had chunks of yeast floating around, but this one doesn’t. This one is slightly underrated, is a little darker than most hefeweizens, and ultimately this is good beer.

Ridiculously crazy yeast/sediment build-up on top of bottle and cap, even when bottle stored upright for about 3 months, at least. Nice ruby tinted brown coloured body with a very thin tan head that fades fast. Aroma of concord and vinifera grapes, caramel and a touch of malt - not much in the nose here. Medium-bodied; Chewy, raisiny and pit fruits in the flavour with roasted malt and caramel very strong following the fruits. Aftertaste shows a very pleasant mix of plums, nuts, caramel and a dose of effervescent bubbles at the tail end. Overall, a decent dunkelweizen, showing some interesting characteristics, but not an amazing beer. I sampled this 50 cL bottle purchased at Liquor Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 03-October-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 22-December-2009.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. It’s a clear, amber radler with a small, white head. Weak nose, malty with some lemon and caramel. The flavor has beer as a base, with artificial lemon up front. Some bitterness and caramel too. Medium to thin mouthfeel. Sweet finish. A quite decent one, guess the dark beer does the trick. 090823

Bottled (thanks Timo A!). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is caramel malts, bready notes as well as rather fruity and wooden notes. Flavour is quite much the same in a nice balance. Very pleasant brew.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. A clear, pale golden beer with a white head. The aroma has pale malts on the grainy side, with fruits and flowery notes as well. There’s a fine bitterness in the mouth, balancing the pale malts nicely. Fruity. Medium body, quite dry. Medium lenght finish with nice bitterness. A quite nice beer in many ways, but nothing more than a decent thirst quencher. 090822

Nice hazy golden coloured body with orange and light copper tints and a soapy tan head with rather large bubbles that tops the glass nicely. Aroma of alcohol, wheat, malt, spice, pears and a bit of apples. Medium-bodied; Assertive fruity (apples and pears and plums) taste up front with plenty of wheat, a touch of spices (allspice & coriander seed) and a very strong but subdued yeast flavour. Aftertaste shows good character and a lot of flavours running wild, from the yeast to the wheat, the sugars and the light spices. Overall, a good beer - pretty spot on for a weizen bock and definitely worth trying if you can find it!
