# 3026 ersma: „jahrgangsweissbier“, also ganz was besonderes. denn es ist ja hinlänglich bekannt, dass die normalen weißbiere der brauerei stets cuvees/blends aus verschiedenen jahrgängen sind. goldfarben und ziemlich klar. mittelviel schaum, der mittelstabil ist. der geruch ist hefig-bananig. der antrunk ist mäßig perlig und bringt hefe, banane und hopfen mit. wirkt recht dünn. zur mitte gesteigerte bananigkeit gepaart mit weizen-noten und mehr herbe. der abgang ist hopfig mit etwas hefe, bleibt aber so verhalten wie der rest. die flasche wikrt etwas edler als die normalausgabe. fazit: mäßiges, bananenbetontes weißbier mit nur erahnbaren fruchtigen akzenten. da gibts etliche weißbiere, die ohne adelsprädikat auskommen und deutlich besser sind. reine augenwischerei. 10, 8,7,7,10,7

Bottle @ home. Thanks to Polk. Pours very pale yellow with a fast fading white head. Aroma is very light with wheat, yeast and a touch of lemon. Taste is wheat, yeast, touch of white bread and banana. Medium body, soft carbonation. 170512 ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

500ml bottle, 2012 edition. Aroma is light fruity, yeast. Has a light cloudy, yellow-ish appearance with a two finger white head. Light sour and sweet. Has a great fruity mouthfeel but a very short finsih. Overall a not bad Weizen. Almost like a Kristallweizen.

It’s hazy - not unclear even after rolling - golden with a white, creamy head. The aroma has notes of mild yeast, fruit and wheat. The flavor is sweet wtih notes of slightly spicy yeast, fruit, wheat and the finish is slightly spicy.

My friends went to Germany and said they bought me the most expensive beer in the beer store. This, apparently, was that. I take it home and drop it at soon as I enter my kitchen, and beer begins squirting out of the cap as the clock turns noon on a Sunday. I frantically open the bottle and hefeweizen is geysering out of the bottle, spraying about four feet in every direction as I put my hand over the bottle. Rookie move. I get about half of it into a glass. The beer? I can’t say I can tell a huge difference from their regular hefe. Perhaps a bit lighter? Wheaty and slighly lemony. A bit of bananas. Pretty light and slighly hazy pour. Huge white head when you drop light I did, but it resulted in a flattish pour. Light and refreshing. A good beer to drink at noon on Sunday right before you take a mentally handicapped person to go see the Three Stooges remake, which is what I did.

Rating #706, botte from a Penny Markt in Berlin

Appearance is clear golden with a nice big head. Aroma has hay and malts. Flavor with hay and pilsener-malts, and some alcohol as well. Somewhat pilsener like. Ok bitter finish. Ok beer, but boring and too pilsener-like.

Very pale yellow with a beautiful head, uneven. Has that Franziskaner thick palate which I always enjoy. I got this in Munich while staying close to the brewery. Pretty good as my 800th beer on Ratebeer.

A bit boring wheat beer when you know what this brewery else can do. Filtered wheat beer no thanks.

Bottle 500ml. @ [ Fastelavn Smagning - Carnival Tasting - Ulfborg ].

Unclear medium yellow colour with a large to huge, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, wheat, moderate yeasty, banana, fruity. Flavour is moderate sweet and light light bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20120218]

Bottle, 5.0%. Cloudy yellow colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is nicely malty with a good mouthfeel. Has a little yeast, but less than standard German wheat beer. OK mouthfeel.
