Winter in upstate New York always means a few undeniable things: Days are short and the cold nights drag on. The smell of wood stoves fill the crisp air as people hunker down and await the thaw. Dunkelweizen is our way of embodying winter in a beer. This hybrid of two traditional German beer styles with an American twist is dark and smoky, with smooth hints of chocolate and vanilla. The rich and complex body is filling while the spicy clovey Bavarian yeast character invites more sips. Let this imperial smoked dunkelweizen help get you through your winter hibernation.
