Pretty good beer, thick big, very well alcoholed, packs a bit of a punch. Goes down smooth w/ a nice pal.

A nice offering and my first beer from the Newport Hofbrauhaus. Poured cloudy orange-brown with a nice off-white head. Aroma and flavor were rather one-dimensional with the classic banana/clove hefeweizen yeast combination. Although this wasn't the most complex beer, I found it very drinkable and smooth.

I have had this one on location a few times. It is excellent and it packs a punch. I strongly recommend this one. Very frothy.

This is an interesting seasonal from Hofbrauhaus. Cloudy orange color with a thin off-white head. Aroma is a little fruity and a little wheaty. I am not that familiar with the DunkelWeizen style but the flavor was a mixture of malt, cider, banana and caramel. Smooth and mostly drinkable but lopsided. I would go back to the Dunkel next time.
