I've enjoyed Weihenstephaner many times, and drank a few of them while in Bavaria recently. However, this particular bottle was courtesy of a guest at my local beer party. I guess he or she felt Germany was local enough. Which means that unlike a lot of the beers I tried while over there, this one can easily be found here in the States.Dunkel Weiss is the girlfriend's favorite style, and I rather enjoy it too (in the winter), so my second batch of home brew is an attempt at making my own (it'll be reviewed soon). Weihenstephaner is one of the best to emulate as it's neither too wheaty or sweet. It's got just the right bit of smokiness and gritiness. I can't think of any finer Dunkel, and so this gets my BEST IN CLASS award.
10/10
