Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan

Dunkelweizen·Germany·5.3% ABV·One of 89 Dunkelweizens in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Weihenstephaner Hefeweißbier Dunkel's banana-y and caramel character. The dark counterpart to the house wheat beer is a cloudy, chestnut-coloured Dunkelweizen with a creamy white head. The nose pairs a fruity sweetness and ripe banana with soft malt notes. A light caramel tone opens the palate, followed by bready dark malt and a touch of roast, while lively carbonation and a full body give it a velvety feel. Bitterness stays low, leaving banana and caramel to carry the finish.
