COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Yellow-gold colour which receives a noble haze through the yeast and our special fermentation process. Crowned by a fine-pored, blinding-white stable froth a freshly poured Hofbräu Munich Weizen is truly a genuine splendour to behold. ...The nose sniffs a fruity, flowery scent like wheat and yeast a taste which is confirmed in the first sampling.

(draft) There aren’t many hefeweizens that I can say I actually liked. This one I liked. Sweet and fruity, with none of the citrus that usually ruins this style for me. Yummy.

I’ve had plenty 1 liter mugs of this cloudy beauty. A true session beer at 5.4 percent, the flavor is wonderful. Hints of banana and the wanginess that I love in a good German style wheat.

Tap at Newport. Cloudy amber color with medium white head. Aroma and flavor was sweet wheat with strong banana finish. Drinkable brew for midwest tate.

Pouris hazy yellow/gold with not much of a head. Aroma is cloves with a little citrus, and the taste is the same. Not overwhelming like some german hefes. Very drinkable.

smoosh (529) - New Albany, Indiana, USA - MAR 7, 2004
Draft - very fruity aroma. Traditional look of a German hefe - cloudy with a medium gold body and white head. Flavor of some malt and huge banana notes. Spritzy and well-carbonated. Nice overall.

I ordered this without the lemon wedge at the Hofbrauhaus in Newport. I think it is a little odd that the HB brand concept chose Newport KY for a franchise, but who am I? Back to the beer. Very cloudy butterscotch color with a rocky white head and a strong yeast nose. Some clove sharpness with a tangy citrus bight and an almost lactic acidity. Finish was of yeast and wet cardboard. I'd get the dunkel instead.

Somewhat unusual tasting (even for a wheat beer), Munich Weizen is just an average beer by me.

Dogbrick (6041) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - JUL 28, 2003
Pours a hazy dark yellow with a medium white head. Quick lacing. The aroma is very wheaty and a little floral. Slick body with a wheat flavor along with a little citrus. Finish is clean and wheaty as well. Average.
