This dark wheat beer is bottle conditioned. Made from a combination of 50% wheat and 50 % barley malt, it has a hearty body yet is effervescent and palatable. Wheat beer officianados must discover for themselves this different and exciting brew. Very dry aftertaste.

"Pours a dark brown/red with thick lace and thin head. Nice aroma of caramel malts, light hops, sarsaparilla, and mild spices. The mouthfeel is thick, rich, and smooth. Smoky flavor of caramelized malts, citrus, licorace, and spices. Good."

"Mellow caramel roast. A little watery but some bready aspects to the flavor were smooth. A crisp finish, its refreshing.... Auburn color, good haze, creamy head. Aroma is fresh and doughy, brown banana smell... a slight sourness. sorta fruity... the finish left me hangin "

"Poured a murky amber brown color, somewhat light for the style, decent initial head, nothing fancy, somewhat weak lacing. The aroma was caramel and bananas, weak phenolic/clover aspects. The flavor was caramel, barely any roastedness, very light bananas, more citrus than banana. Spicy aspects about nil. The flavor was watered down, disappointing. Mouthfeel, thin as well. Not a stellar dunkelweizen."

"Poured an amber cloudy liquid, large head that disappeared quickly, aroma had a sour smell, mouthfeel was like water when you overcame the sourness,
not a good weisse."

[5] Review by Stoutlover72 from Northern, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (1/12/2006 1:48:28 AM)
"This was a decent beer. Pour was a cloudy, orangy color with a head that went very quick. A very toffee like aroma with some sweet fruit in the nose also. Delicate malt characters with hints of overipe bananna, pear and plums. In the finish I thought I could detect some smoke but alas, it was awful faint to be sure. A really, really nice beer that is also very hard to find."
