Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Bavarian Dunkel Hefeweizen in 2014
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
It wasn’t just pale Hefeweizen that I caught in my sweep of Bavarian brewery websites. I also found quite a few dark versions.
It’s a sign of the increased popularity of Weissbier that there a many breweries that produce more than one variation. Sometimes a dark version. Which is a bit like black IPA. Because the name Weissbier is connected to the colour and not necessarily anything to do with wheat.
I can’t help wondering how these beers are coloured. It wouldn’t surprise me if some were just the brewery’s standard pale Weissbier with added Sinamar. Or maybe I’m being over cynical.
Though the fact that the averages for these beers and the pale versions are almost identical. Here are the lovely numbers:

See what I mean? The averages are scarily similar.
Interestingly, no-one seems to make a Kristall Dunkles Weissbier. I wonder why that is?
