Lurking in the dark forests of Bavaria is the mythical Wolpertinger: a small animal, usually a rabbit, with wings, antlers and fangs! It is said that drinking enough of this classic German Dunkelwiezen beer, with its banana, clove, and slight caramel notes mingling to create this refreshing dark wheat ale, may just cause you to see a Wolpertinger yourself! This beer utilized a beautiful mixture of specialty grains to create a delicate flavor profile, with traditional Hallertau hops for balance. The perfect traditional dark German wheat beer to brew for Oktoberfest, or any time of the year!
