500ml bottle (I'm guessing, since it's not printed anywhere on the label) - lots of hopfenweisse around here of late, but I believe that this is my first hopfendunkel.
This beer pours a murky, dark orange-brick brown colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and fairly creamy beige head, which leaves some splendid thickly webbed lace around the glass as it slowly sinks out of sight.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, bittersweet cocoa powder, damp banana chips, some earthy yeastiness, and faint leafy, weedy, and floral hops. The taste is grainy and bready caramel malt, a hint of generic toffee, banana pudding cups, fading chocolate, ethereal yeast, and more understated leafy, musty, and herbal green hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite mild in its milquetoast frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing causing any sort of trouble at this particular point in the program. It finishes off-dry, the malt and banana essences running the lingering table.
Overall - this comes across as more of a straight-up dunkelweizen, than anything all that hoppy. It's simple, and easy enough to put back, especially on the first snow day of winter 2018 - what, WTF? I'm going to need more of this stuff, stat!
