Adler-Bräu Schlüsselfeld Weisse

Light yellow colored with hazy appearance. Medium sized white head. Nice Bayern aroma with refreshing banana and spicy yeastiness, somehow this is easily recognicable to be from this area. Medium bodied. Flavor is also fine with banana and spices in start, fine crispy carbonation. Aftertaste is yeasty, still rather short one. Still excellent brew, nice to have good weizen for long time.

Bottle (purchased at the brasserie): Hazy, pale golden, smaller, persisting foamy layer, wheaty-sourish nose with a tinge of cloves and bananas; light to moderate sweetish-sourish flavour, light to medium bodied, quite smooth MF; sweetish orangey finish with a light acidity in the aftertaste. Not unpleasant.........

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a lazing white head. The aroma is powerfully wheaty as well as light notes of banana. The flavor is sweet malty combined with strong notes of wheat as well as a light fruityness especially of banana and oranges, leading to a dry and slightly wheaty end with hints of acidity, that makes it fresh.

(bottle) Hazy, light orange colour with a big and dense foamy white head. Moderately sweet, slightly fruity (banana) wheat-malty nose with a touch of vanilla and clovy spice. Sweet and slightly sour flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation, at least for a Hefeweizen. Soft grainy, moderately wheaty taste; rather slim, slightly wheaty and quite phenolic (cloves, vanilla), spicy finish. Who needs a Weizen in Franconia ? At a growing number of breweries one has to ask where the Weizens are actually brewed.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a hazy, pilsener golden with a tall, handsome, creamy white head. Distinct aromas of yeast and banana. Medium-bodied with a fairly high carbonation. Accents of phenol, citrus and banana. Ends on a dry note. 101106
