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.

Bottle. Pours murky yellow with a medium white head. Banana bread aroma and flavour, spicy yeast and some soapiness as well. The banana wears thin as the beer progresses and results in more citrus flavours than anything else. Slight spicy, hoppy finish. It’s OK but unfortunately the bottle has taken on some off flavours and a touch of acidity. Cheers to Stew & Chris for the bottle.

Like a soapy apple-juice, this beer is either oxidized or naturally horrible. It tastes like a green-apple scented dish washing detergent. At least they won’t need to clean the glass afterward. Bottle at Abraxas Lounge, Miami Beach. Kind of like the watered-down apple juice from the dispenser at the Holiday Inn Continental Breakfast. Caca.

Bottle, 500ml. Pours marmalade in colour, with initial frothy head, since dissipating. Extremely fruity on the nose, with citrus and banana predominating. Aromatic on the palate, almost perfumed, with hops and yeast surfacing through the citrus and banana, with hoppiness to an almost IPA degree. A very successful fusion of styles.

Bottle. Hazy radiant gold with a medium white head. Aroma is a rich and fruity blend of citrusy hop, banana ester, a little clove, yeast, and a little spice - like a fruit salad beer. Flavor has a lot of banana ester and orange-like hops, leading into a clove and lemon finish. Starts fairly sweet but finishes a bit dry and very clean. Throughout the profile, the hops are very well mated to the malt - Hallertauer is a great hop for this brew. Palate is pleasantly smooth and lively. A very impressive brew, and a style I look forward to exploring more. This one is particularly well balanced and definitely showcases the skill of both breweries.

Bottle. Pours a hazy golden brown with a short lived white head. Strong citrus and banana on the nose with a touch of spice. The flavour is quite fruity with orange, banana and passionfruit at the front and hops and mixed spice on the finish. A really interesting, tasty beer that would go down a treat at the end of a hot day sitting on a beach and watching the sun go down.
