Brew: 28. Linz - Over dunked Dunkelweizen 

Date: 5/8/08

Beer info: Bottled in brown 750ml bottle, gold cap "28", cool label "Hand made beer/made right here", wlp 300


Sampling notes:

Served chilled in weizen glass.

Pulled out the appropriate glassware, and was rewarded with a large foam offwhite head atop a considerably clean cola body. Clove spice apparent straightup on the nose, brown sugar-like sweetness in there, with some subtle roasty/melanoidin-like and liquorice maltiness. Carbonation is reasonably lively, body not as creamy as carbonation leads me to believe, slight stickiness about the texture with a bit of a lactic sharpness. Spice cuts through the slightly nutty roasted, liquorice maltiness of the body, bold clove with a touch of apple and dark berry tartness, yet enough sweetness in there to balance it out. Finish has a slight sharpness, tiny bit of bitterness and spice lingering. A style of beer i'm very fond of, and wasn't let down by the complexity of this one. Cheers Linz!
