Commercial Description:
This Beer is bottled in 500ml SCHNEIDER bottles.
This unique beer is the result of the long friendship of Schneider brewmaster Hans-Peter Drexler and Brooklyn brewmaster Garrett Oliver. The two brewmasters feel that Schneider & Brooklyner Hopfen-Weisse represents the quality, tradition and terroir of the Bavarian Hallertauer hop region paired with the innovation and creative energy for which Brooklyn is famous.

The hop aroma is fantastic on this, smells like fresh Hallertaur hops. The beer is very nice looking, very cloudy and beautiful with a fluffy white head that leaves a nice lace. The flavor is fantastic and very hoppy the hops only compliment the fruity flavors of hefe-weizen. This is fantasically easy drinking for something of 8.2% alcohol. Something entirley different and welcome.

bottle, from Raleigh Wholefoods. Good aroma, bitter spiced, Alot going on. Clove, lemon, lite banana, grassy, dusty, cobwebs. Cloudy orange golden color, good sized head, ok lacing. Had seemed to get bigger as I sipped and got into the narrow part of the glass. Bitter flavor, doesn’t have the range of the aroma, wheat, grassy. Medium body, lite creamy mouthfeel, bitter finish. Nice beer, aroma was my favorite part.

Thanks to RomanW70. Pours a cloudy wheat color with a hops, lemon, and grass in the aroma. Taste is lemon, wheat with a mild hoppy ending. Very different and very enjoyable!

They aimed to do a weizen bock with extra hopping, and did so. Interesting and smooth. A nice bitterness. Medium mouthfeel, the wheat aroma dominates and is the initial taste. After that the bitterness overwhelms the palate.I can’t wait to try the Brooklyn version.

Hazy orange in colour, insanely large off-white coloured head with excellent retention and lacing. The aroma is very lemony with lots of wheat, citrus, yeast and must. The flavour is of pepper spice, yeast, lots of citrus, wheat, grassy, soft and creamy. Yeasty mouthfeel, medium body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes with a light peppery spiciness with lots of yeast.

This was very good, extremely refreshing. The final pour from the bottle brought on a fantastic murky brown colour with some hops becoming noticable at the very end.

500ml bottle obtained in a trade with kmweaver, thanks Ken.

Unique and exactly what I expected. Hoppy and heffey. They actually compliment each other better than I thought they would. Still pretty fruity though. I found it to be surprisingly refreshing.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet apricot, grass and yeast along with some mild hoppyness. Flavour is quite the same with some acidic wooden notes. A strange brew.
