Maisels Weisse Dunkel (Germany: Dunkel weizen: 5.2% ABV)
Visual: Cloudy reddish brown, a shimmering range of colour and a moderate off white head.
Nose: Malty chocolate, coriander and wheat.
Body: Ovaltine, lots of wheat, malt.
Finish: Cherry liquor and milk chocolate. Lemon. Slightly bitter and charred end, lightly done. Black hard liquorice bits at the back.
Conclusion: A decent dunkel with a great finish as I’m coming to expect from the Maisel range, yet this one has a decent body to match.
Decent lasting flavour with masterful balance, this is well crafted dunkel with summer freshness and slight bitter chocolate intermixed.
A good outing and in the better half of the dunkel set for sure.
Wow, this one seems to be a very nice dunkel weitzen! And a good blog too… I expect your next beer tastings.

Thanks, glad you like the blog.
he beer was very nice, I always find it hard getting a decent Dunkel Weizen, it seems like a hard style to get right. Often they seem to end up just a bland mash of what and ill defined flavours, so when I do find I decent on I appreciate it all the more.
