COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our Ayinger Ur-Weisse is an old-fashioned wheat with some fine roasted malt to give it more color and flavor than golden hefe- weisse. It has an immense crown of lovely foam held proudly above a robe of translucent amber. On the palate, malt and yeast predominate, with a delicious balance of fruit and bread-like yeast. The taste is complex, with suggestions of soft fruit, apple, and, in the finish, perhaps, even cloves.

"Pour a cloudy brown color with a huge huge head what disapated quickly, leaving just a thin thin head. Aroma was sweet and banana and spices. Flavor was much the same, either yeast/wheat flavor to it. Would do this one again quality beer."

Another excellent Ayinger brew. I think the bottle I had was a little bit old, it just had something a little funny about it. Still really good though.

500ml bottle. My first Dunkelweizen. Pours a cloudy brown color with a good sized tan head. Sweet banana with spice aroma with a tart clean palate. Delicious flavor with banana, wheat & cloves being the major players. Very good.

Pours cloudy, deep, brownish gold with a thick off-white head (that dissipates to a ~1/4 inch foam that lasts the duration of the drink). The aroma is very heavy with wheat. There is also some bready yeast, some sweet malts and honey, and traces of lemon or sweet orange zest and banana. The beer is yeasty and wheaty and very zippy with carbonation at first. It then reveals some fruit and malts - while maintaining a lot of bubbly zing tickling the surface of the tongue. The finish has more soft fruit, lots of wheat, some yeast, and some subtle hop bitterness. The finish is somewhat dry, wheaty, and yeasty, with a delicate touch of bitterness. Overall, the flavor seems disappointingly watery and has a peculiar funk that is hard to describe - it seems a clash between the darker, chewier flavors from roasted grains combined with the fruity weizen yeast flavors. It is interesting and not bad - but a letdown compared to other delicious beers from Ayinger that I’ve had...

500 Ml Bottle-Trade w/after4ever-pours a cloudy golden color w/a slight white head. Sweet, banana aroma. Sweet flavor of wheat, banana, green apple, orange peel, bread dough, colander, vanilla, & pepper. Had a lot of carbonation to it. Very easy to drink, very enjoyable. Long yeasty finish, a real winner. Thanks Tom!

lamas (1033) - Washington DC, USA - AUG 20, 2005
500mL bottle. Label is slightly different than that in the picture. A murky iced-tea brown pour with a thick, fizzy tan head. Wheaty, lemony/banana, yeasty aroma with plenty of sweet malts underneath. Carbonation is very high and definitely detracts from the taste. It’s still very apparent that this is a delightfully well-balanced beer. Ample sweet, bready malts compliment the wheat and yeasty tanginess throughout. There are hints of apple pie filling in the aroma and taste.
