An organic, dark wheat beer. Dark Wheat has drawn inspiration from the classic south German “Hefe Dunkelweisse” The colour is deep and dark and the crown is beige.

Dark Wheat is brewed with a carefully chosen German wheat beer yeast. Enjoy Dark Wheat chilled, whether you want to pour it “German style” is up to you. -The Germans almost empties the bottle and then pours the last of the lee with contains leftover yeast on top of the crown of the beer. Dark Wheat is an excellent lunch beer.

Dark Wheat is brewed in accordance with organic principles – a natural way to go for the brewery Hornbeer who already have taken many initiatives to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the brewing of its quality beers.

Copenhagen 30/7-2017. 50 cl bottle from Østerbro Vin & Spiritus; Østerbrogade, Kbh. Ø. Painting of what looks like a cross between a vulture and a crow on the label.

Pours dark brown with bubbly off-white head. Settles as thin layer of foam covering the surface of the beer. No lacing.

Aroma is quite rich and sweet. Banana, lemonade with sugary notes.

Soft carbonation and watery palate.

Flavor is well balanced. Medium sweet followed by medium bitterness. Aftertaste is sweetish.

Decent although slightly boring Dunkelweizen.
