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 cloudy sunshine yellow with a thick 4 finger foamy white head. smell - wheat, lemon, yeast, spice, fruit. taste - fruit, lemon, wheat, there is a sweetness on the back-end that is also a bit tart, leaves the mouth slightly dry and wanting more.

Ayinger always a favourite brewer of mine. Comes in the typical Ayinger slopped 500ml brown bottle..same simple label..and painted cap. Very nice loking beer bright yellow and hazy with a very large pure white head. Lovelly german hefe aroma..but this has more "spiciness" than bananas..also more wheat sourness is detetcted than usual. Tatse is very nice as expected from the aroma the banana taste is muted..but theres an attractive creamyness to the beer, slightly bitter aftertaste. Strangelly for it having a creamy flavour the mouthfeel doesnt hold out..it becomes rather watery near the end. Drinkable summer beer..but far from the best of the style

Probably the best hefe I have had. The tartness gives it something more than Paulaner or Pyramid. Enormous head! Huge! Nice cloudy gold with yeast floating within. Went down smooth with lots of sweetness turning to tartness in the end. Good work Ayinger! You make good stuff.

Initial observation was that this beer very pale colored, unfiltered, almost milky. Nice head that never quit. The most striking thing about this beer was its potent aroma. Fruity, apples, a lot of esters. The nose didn't reflect on the taste at all. The flavor was very dry, the champagne description hit right on the spot. Very bubbly and effervescent mouthfeel.

Bubble gum, banana, lemon bouquet. Cloudy, dingy yellow/white pour, with a very thick creamy white head, great lacing. Thin and watery mouthfeel. Banana and cream flavor. Weak clove finish. Clean, pure, and all that a hefe should be.
