Bottle @home.
This is a funny one. It is like a weisse, hezy with with white head.
And then the aroma and flavor!
It is "honningbolcher"! Honney and fennel. Too overwhelming.
Very sweet, but no rebuy here. frankenkitty (1904), Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 1, 2009 Pours a silty, hazed copper under a low, fluffy, off-white head which settles moderately to a lasting film. The nose finds fruity, yeasty esters and a pronounced, sharp cheesiness. A little flat on the palate yet full-bodied and creamy. Low cardamom stimulates the upper palate before pears, grapes and leafy greens. Alcohol really shows in the nose as it warms up but doesn’t overpower in the flavor. ~~~~~~~~ Vintage 2007. A generous pour from the mensch known as Cornfield.
