Die Schaumkrone hält nicht so gut, farblich ist es braun und sehr hefig-trüb. Es riecht sehr hefig, weizig und etwas fruchtig-hefig. Geschmacklich ist es hefig, dunkelmalzig-süß leicht herb. Im Nachgeschmack wird der Geschmack schwächer und ist nocht leicht fruchtig-malzig. Fazit: Mittelmaß! Test vom 11.12.2010 Noten: 9,9,9,8,10,9 - 8,90

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a cloudy amber with a dense and frothy white head. Sweet banana nose with some yeast. Medium body with a soft mouthfeel and a low carbonation. Again banana and yeast with a slight phenollic touch in the finish. 151010

Bottle. Cloudy golden coloured with a small white head. Sweet aroma of bananas with notes of caramel. Sweet flavour of bananas and caramel with notes of hops. A bit watery.

Bottle, 5.1%. Weak banana aroma. Hazy dark orange colour. OK stable white head. The flavour is quite subtle, a little banana, OK sweetness. Hint of plastic, but OK clean for a Hefeweizen.

(swing top bottle) Cloudy, bright orange colour with a big and lacy, slightly off-white foamy head. Sweet and yeasty wheat-malty aroma with moderately fruity notes of banana and noticeable phenolic spices of cloves and nutmeg. Sweet flavour with a tinge of acidity, light to medium bodied with a smooth carbonation. Good wheat-character, moderately yeasty fruity taste; upcoming spices towards the finish. Well-balanced stuff (31.07.08).

Swing-top bottle. Sweet banana-peach and wheat malt aroma. Cloudy orange-yellow color with moderate head. Sweet banana, orange, peach, clove and wheat malt flavor. Mild metallc finish is the only negative here. Very nice Hefe.

Bügerverschlußflasche (Vielen Dank, Jonas !): Cloudy, orangey-amber coloured, smaller, quite stable fluffy off-white head; wheat, cloves and bananas in the quite spicy nose; robust bitter-sweet-tart flavour, medium bodied, mellow MF; wheaty-sweetish finish with a light tartness in the very end. A tasty, spicy Weizen, can’t believe it, that this beer was really made by Brauerei Schimpfle............

Bottle. Cloudy amber, golden head. Minerally yeasty and light peachy aroma. Earthy peppery base, fruitnotes of banana and peach, light clove and spice finish. Mellow sparkly mouthfeel, medium body. Fairly nice.
