Commercial Description:
Delicious lemon and vanilla scented wheat beer with yeast. This is an aristocratic beer with a champagne sparkle and a beautifully sustained head. With the pale color of mountain honey and tart refreshing palate, it is a "brut" beer with the delicious, complex fruitiness of extra-dry champagne. Bottle conditioned and top fermented, it is a benchmark for this style of beer. The nose is fruity-spicy, herbaceous with lots of flowers, and fruit. With such a creamy head, you can build miniature mountains that resemble the Alps. Pour slowly, fill the special weissbier glass half full and swirl the bottle on the table to put the yeast in suspension.

Pours a very hazy yellow with a lively head that disappears really fast. Nice yeasty aroma. Flavor is light malt and citrus--pretty straightforward hefe without some of the other classic flavors, like banana or spice.

I found this to be an excellent wheat. I had it years ago and could not find it. Yesterday a girl I was with pulled one from her cooler and I almost fell over. So now I know where to get locally. This is what a sheat beer should be. It is full bodied had a pleasant aroma and a great flavor.

Pours a cloudy, medium gold color with a white, heavily carbonated head which disappears fairly quickly. Flavor has hints of banana and bubble gum. Carbonation is the most evident element of the finish. Overall, a decent Hefeweizen, but not great.

One of my favorite Wheat Beers. Really cloudy with a full body. A good yeasty flavor. Terrific with a small amount of lemon to complement the citrus notes already in the brew.

Bottle. Bought just outside of Aying, Germany (where it’s brewed). Has a nice banana flavor and great with a slice of orange. Enjoyed drinking it with a Garlic Wurst and a hunk of Brie.
