Bottle, 4.8%. Good refreshing hop aroma. Clear shiny yellow colour. Small stable white head. The flavour has a mild and crisp malt flavour with a little sweetish hop. Hint of vegetable, but tastes OK. Late bitterness, slightly rough, but clean.

Draught at the brewpub as Bio Dunkel. Weak horse blanket aroma. Cloudy dark brown colour. OK stable off-white head. The flavour is quite roasted with a bit more horse or perhaps just stable. Has a fruity hint as well, which I do not enjoy much, but all in all a flavourful and interesting beer.

Draught at the brewpub. Weak phenolic aroma like so many other German weizens. Cloudy dark orange colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is not phenolic, though. Has a bit of hoppiness to balance a slight sweetness. A well-balanced wheat beer.
