screwball (796), Motala, Sweden Jun 11, 2009 Bottle from Systembolaget.
I had this with a good friend of mine. I had never finished this one myself. Itīs to stong and heavy. I find this one little hard to rate. Itīs so different from other weisen. Itīs more strong, heavier taste from spices, candy, banana, vanilla, pineapple, grape and sweeeeet malt.
The brew is very hazy yellow. Head is rocky white. I had fun rating this. A new experience! frankenkitty (1900), Oak Lawn, Illinois, USA Jun 10, 2009 Opens with a mild gush, then pours thick-hazed golden with large chunks of sediment under a full, creamy, off-white head. (As I near the end of the 500ml bottle, the yeast becomes so thick as to turn the golden body a bizarre shade of septic tan, so I need to deduct an appearance-point.) Florals strike the nose first which actually pair well with fruity banana and yeasty dough aromas. Creamy mouthfeel with a touch of spritz and astringence. Alcohol is undeniable in the flavor, accompanied by banana bread yeasts and sharp herbal hops. The overall flavor profile would be tart and fruity leading to a tart and spicy finish with a hint of bitterness. A very well-made beer due to an excellent collaboration. ~~~~~~~~~~ Purchased August, 2007, Binnys, Orland Park, IL, consumed June 2009. vtafro (452), , New Jersey, USA Jun 9, 2009 Bottle. I dont think beer is as good as any of the other Schneider brews. Flavor and aroma are decent but this is mediocre. danielcurtis81 (879), San Diego, California, USA Jun 8, 2009 Bottle. Pours a cloudy straw with a huge foaming white head. Yeast, bread, soap on the nose. Flavors of spice, some mango, melon. Nice hop bitterness. I am digging this guy. bookman10 (85), Osseo, Minnesota, USA Jun 7, 2009 Pours a hazy, pale golden color with, in my experience, little to no head. Spicy, yeasty aroma with a bitter, fruity bite to the taste. Hops and a subtle, sour banana note in the background. Ths would pair well with food, I suspect. DiabolikDUB (143), Portland, Oregon, USA Jun 6, 2009 Poured from 500ml Bottle into Weizen glass.
Pours a creamy pale orange with glowing edges. It has a frothy pure white head that lasts the entire time you are drinking this beer. Aroma is heavy with spices, earthy hops, some banana and yeast. Flavor is light sweet and toasted malts, white pepper spice, light hopiness and ends with a fluffy bitterness. Its medium bodied beer with plenty of carbonation. I like the amount of spices that the flavor has and it ends up semi-dry. Very good beer. Hansen (2235), Randers, Denmark Jun 5, 2009 CBF 2009. A very hopped weizen. Dark yellow and murky. White head, mostly diminishing. Aroma is coriander and hops, moderate malty, heavy yeasty. Flavor starts moderate sweet and bitter, finish heavy bitter. Dry texture. Lively carbonation.
