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.

Porurs smoothly w/ a thunk like good beer should. Huge golden to white head. Initial hoppy smell followed by fruits and cereal. Cloudy but not murky composition. Clear enough to see bubbles rising. Very prounouced sweet banana taste. Also some apricot, rich heavy cream, and fresh dough. Very appealing mouthfee. Smooth like a glass of cold milk. What little aftertaste there is, is very pleasant. Not the typical hefe, but very very good in it’s own right.

Pours a hazy golden yellow with a stiff creamy head. Strong aromas of vanilla and banana. The taste is light and refreshing, starting off with a lemon-orange citrus flavor and finishing with a mild but enduring sour fizz. This is truly one of the great Weisse beers.

Great lemon-yellow color with a lots of bubbles and head. The aroma is sweet and light with bold wheat scents and vanilla. The flavor is lighter, and maybe even a little watery. The finish is very smooth. Excellent beer!

Complex fruity-spicy aroma. No thick creamy head as advertised, however. Decent taste, but not my favorite hefe.

Yeasty aroma, with a hint of spice and maybe a touch of banana. Initial taste is of slight clove and yeasty sweetness. Mouthfeel is excellent with a very smooth and full finish that tastes of banana, spice, slight fullness that remains.

Very good Hefeweizen! It had great flavors that really complimented my brisket, easy drinking and smooth. I would get this again anytime.

Great tasting beer I tried after a mate from England suggested it. Flowery and fruity at the same time, I highly recommend this beer to anyone who likes this type of beer. Well done Ayinger!
