Hacker-Pschorr

Hacker-Pschorr Dunkle Weisse is a masterful display of the Dunkles Weissbier style, offering a sensory journey through Bavarian tradition. The pour reveals a velvety tapestry of dark malts, specifically highlighting Munich and caramel malt varieties that provide a spicy sweetness and notes of toasted bread crust. A classic yeast profile delivers distinctive clove phenols and soft fruity esters, with the brewery's description specifically noting hints of albaricoque (apricot) alongside the expected banana. The interplay between the rich, bready wheat and a subtle herbal hop bitterness creates a harmonious, medium-bodied experience that finishes with a clean, spicy effervescence.

Appearance. Medium copper to deep mahogany brown (SRM 14-23). Features a very thick, moussy, long-lasting off-white head with excellent lacing. Typically hazy with a visible yeast shimmer.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Balanced phenols and esters featuring clove, banana, and ripe apricot. Bready, doughy wheat aroma is layered with rich caramel, toast, and toasted bread crust. Very low spicy hop notes.

Taste. A soft, malty-sweet initial impression with caramel and toasted grain. Prominent clove and banana yeast character is well-balanced by the darker malt flavors. Low bitterness allows the bready wheat and Munich malt richness to shine. The finish is relatively dry and spicy with a lingering bready aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium to medium-full body. Fluffy and creamy texture with high carbonation providing a lively, effervescent feel. Minimal alcohol warmth and no astringency.
