gnoff (3560), Göteborg, Sweden Aug 5, 2007 (Draught at Weihenstephan Bräu-Stüberl) Tried as "Original Hell". Clear yellow color, fluffy white head. MAlty, hoppy and fruity scent. Malty and herbal taste. Spritzy mouthfeel, medium bitterness. downender (2538), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Aug 4, 2007 Bottle. Golden coloured with a decent white head. Aroma of hay, sweet malt and floral hops. Flavour started sweet with some lemon before a long, bitter finish. Good. jeremytoni (1069), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA Aug 1, 2007 From bottle poured slightly hazy light amber color with a fair amount of head. Very weak water taste, with not much of a finish. Sassenach (59), USA Jul 27, 2007 Smells of honey, hay, and oats. Pours a cloudy yellow with a green hue. Nice head that falls fast. tastes of bitter lime peel and honey. Doesn’t seem to have any body too it. The finish fades quickly but the honey lingers a bit. Very watery. joohefner (380), Isla Vista, California, USA Jul 25, 2007 pale gold and slightly lime green, with a thin white head.aroma of apples, grain, and some lemon. lightly viscous body with big crisp bubbles. honey sweet flavor, with a light citrus and bitterness. has a metallic finish to it. overall pretty good nchomefinder (29), North Carolina, USA Jul 22, 2007 Bottle. Okay beer, good on a hot day. kind of a odd taste, not bad, just odd. jrob21 (1252), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Jul 15, 2007 Pale golden color with minimal white head. Lots of bitter flavors with some citrus in there. Slightly citrusy and floral nose. It’s a lager so don’t expect the world. As far as lager’s go though this one is top notch even if it is a thin, light bodied beer. jefcon (997), Arlington, Virginia, USA Jul 11, 2007 Hum. Definely golden in color. Lots of head, with a bit of effervescence. Aromas are, um, papery, weird. Some lemon and banana, too, as well as the requisite spiciness. Grain and water definitely dominate the flavor and palate of this beer. Very mild. Kudos for preserving the traditions of historical beermaking, but the Hefe is clearly the winner in the Weihenstephaner line.
