Commercial Description:
Brooklyner Weisse is a Bavarian-style wheat beer, unfiltered and chock full of spicy esters that evoke hints of cloves and fruit, some say even bananas. The beer is made with a traditional weizen yeast strain. The malt mix is half malted wheat and half barley malt. The hops are Perle, from Germany. Bitterness is low to medium.

12oz bottle. Pours a hazy golden color with a very frothy, white head. The aromas are of bananas, cloves, bubble-gum, and yeast. Tastes a bit tangy then sweetmalt with lots of clove and spiciness. Very crisp and clean.

Bottle. Pours a murky browned gold with a medium sized white head. Light phenols, bread, little bit of clove, bit of caramel. Medium bodied, a bit sweet. Finishes up with again a touch of spicy clove, a scant hint of banana, and a touch of yeast.

Draft at redlight redlight. A subdued German style wheat. The nose is floral with hints of tropical fruit. The flavor is mild, crisp, and pretty nice. Maybe a little too subdued for advocates of hefeweizens, but as I don’t drink them very often I like it.

Bottle. Medium amber color. Estery aroma, with banana and other fruits, very yeasty, with a bit of earthiness. Rather thin palate, and not very rich flavor; banana, clove, a bit tart and acidic as well. Ok, but not great.

Draught on 24th July 2009 at Blind Tiger Alehouse, NYC. Hazy yellow with rocky white head. Citric flavour throughout leading to a tangy citric finish; notes of cerial in early aromas, and generally quite acidic in my experience.
