Impression: Thought I’d had this but it was it was the light colored Fesstags Weizen. This is a gorgeous looking Dunklerweizenbock with a creamy tan head and nose of cooked banana and sour cherries. There’s some dark chocolate in the otherwise fruity palate featuring berries. The lingering finish is a tad less dry than I personally like but it’s not sticky and it’s got a lot going on to perhaps finish that dry. Glad I got it.
