one51	3.4 Weihenstephaner / St.Bernardus Braupakt Blonde Ale Bottle from Foeders drunk fresh upon arrival. Filtered gold with a tall fine head. Nose is spicy, malty biscuit, Belgian yeasty. Caramel and a bit floral on the tongue, not too complex with a short-lived aftertaste. Pleasant carb. Easy drinking but lacking the punch I like from many big Belgian blondes. No, not from hitting on them in bars, I mean the beer! Friday, April 19, 2024

tmoreau	3.8 Weihenstephaner / St.Bernardus Braupakt Blonde Ale On tap at The Bavarian Lodge in Lisle, IL. for their Weihenstephaner & St. Bernardus Braupakt 2024 Release Party, as a near 14 oz. serving to a logoed tulip, showing a clear, golden hue, with a fluffy to rocky layer of white froth, and wavy cling & spray to the lacing. The nose was malt, mild yeast spice, dried fruit, a hint of sweetness, and just a touch of sausage-like/earthy smokiness. Medium bodied, the taste was somewhat similar notes, with decent carbonation, earthy & slightly woody bitterness that lingered, and some dryness to the finish. A solid Belgian Blonde with pleasant complexity. Friday, April 19, 2024

Borresteijn	3.5 Weihenstephaner / St.Bernardus Braupakt Blonde Ale 33cl Fles van Sterk. Heldergouden kleur, witte kraag. Hint van banaan, licht grassig, iets kruidig, fruitig, heeft idd de kwaliteiten van zowel een Weizen als een Belgisch Blond, maar neigt toch wel fors meer naar dat laatste, degelijk bittere finish. Erg safe, maar toch ook wel weer strak gemaakt. Friday, April 5, 2024

Moravius	3.4 Weihenstephaner Original "Weihenstephaner Original Helles", Flasche von Getränke Hoffmann, Berlin. - Tief goldgelb, blank. - In der Nase fein weißbrotiges helles Malz, Biskuit, etwas Honig und gar nicht so knappe würzig-herbale Hopfung. - Antrunk satt und angenehm gerstig hellmalzig mit unaufdringlicher Restsüße, einer Andeutung von Karamel, einer Spur Honig. Milde aber aromatische herbale Hopfung mit leiser Orangenschale. Milder rezent, annähernd vollmundig, ein wenig trocken. Im Abgang ein wenig trocken und mild-aromatisch hopfenherb. - Solide malzig und merklich besser gehopft als man es von dieser Biersorte erwarten kann: ein klassisches Export, das aber in irreführende Weise als Helles bezeichnet ist. (23.3.2024.) Saturday, March 23, 2024

FatPhil	3.4 Weihenstephaner / St.Bernardus Braupakt Blonde Ale Tap (Pudel, Tallinn) (7:3:7:3:14=3.4) Pleasant bananaey aroma, like you'd get from a decent hefeweisse, but also has some of the belgian twang too. Would have been a smooth palate were it not for high carbonation. Taste veers much more towards the belgian side (as opposed to the wheat side) than the aroma, but there's still some banana. Nice biting bitter finish. Tingles for a while. Very interesting belgokrautish crossover. Could rerate in bottle, as that might not have the carbonation issue, if I can find it.

Moretum	3.2 Weihenstephaner Original Klare goldene Farbe mit weißer Schaumkrone. Malziger, getreidiger Geruch. Geschmacklich malzig, getreidig leicht würzig. Mittlere Süße mit leichter Bitterkeit, mittlerer Körper mit spürbarer Kohlensäure. Wednesday, March 20, 2024
Botrytis	3.6 Weihenstephaner Original Im Glas hellgoldgelb und klar mit passender, mittelporiger Perlage. Die weiße, feinporige Schaumkrone zeigt sich flaumig-stabil und sehr gut haltbar. Die Duftaromatik wirkt ganz typisch, spelzig-getreidig malzig, weißbrotartig und zart floral bis kräuterartig hopfig würzig. Der Antrunk kommt frisch, angenehm spritzig, und leicht getreidig-malzig bis zart trocken herb. Was das Mundgefühl betrifft, so zeigt sich ein mäßig voller, milder, malziger Körper mit angenehm kräftiger, aber feiner Rezenz und leichter Trockenheit. Auf Gaumen und Zunge vernimmt man eine leichte Süße sowie zarte Herbe. Aromatisch relativ einfach, getreidig malzig bis weißbrotartig und leicht würzig bis trocken hopfig. So einfach sich dieses Helle zeigt, so sauber und stiltypisch ist es - und so gut lässt es sich aber auch trinken. Es braucht nicht viel Schnickschnack um eine saubere Hoibe im Glas zu haben. Fazit: Vielleicht sticht dieses Helle nicht aus 100 anderen hervor - aber das muss ein gutes Bier auch nicht unbedingt. Monday, March 18, 2024
