Ayinger Bräu-Weisse

Brewed by Brauerei Aying
Style: German Hefeweizen
Aying, Germany

Sipped on this one while playing bocce with brickstoredave at Leon’s Full Service. Life is good... Pours a very hazy golden yellow with a huge puffy white head that lasts for ages and leaves great lacing. The aroma is classic hefe with a massive banana sweetness with only hints of spices in the background. Taste follows the aroma and is, once again, textbook hefe with a huge bubblegum and banana sweetness with hints of lemony hops up front and spices in the finish. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with tons of carbonation and very smooth. To call this one drinkable would be an understatement. It’s an exceptionally easy beer to drink and one of the best examples of the style I’ve had. Highly recommended!

Pours a cloudy off lemon color with lots of white head, lacing, and lots of carb action. Banana, lemon, and bready aroma with some accomodating hops in the background. Very refreshing bready, slightly lemony, and banana flavor. The bready grain wheat flavor in the background has hints of vanilla and bubblegum. The palate is light to medium bodied with a fluffy crisp smoothness. Very drinkable I can drink this all day.

A- Pours a cloudy opaque golden yellow, head is white and creamy froth that is mostly diminishing, minimal lacing on the glass S- Nose is light and crisp, fruit and floral tones with banana, wheat, and spices standing out T- Initial taste is a prickly and dry banana sensation followed by ebbs of spice and citrus tones, some mild trace of bubblegum and wheat, finishes with a brief hint of dry bitterness M- Light-bodied beer, carbonation is lively, bubbly, and well-suited for this style D- Smooth and easy-to-drink hefe that has a bit more complexity and spice than others, this feels like a prototypical hefeweizen that captures the essence of the style very nicely without being to rigid/boring

Appearance: quite pale, straw; Enormous, textbook, white, fluffy head; moderate haze Aroma: Good complexity; Textbook banana and clove; moderate, well-balanced wheat along with subtle vanilla Flavor: Banana and clove are once again the strongest components, but not out of balance; the vanilla from the nose remains in the background Palate: Great, long finish! Great way to end a fundamentally sound beer!

Excellent wheat beer. Has all the notes it’s supposed to: fruity, yeasty, and that nice nose that good wheat beers have. If you like the style, this is a superb example: if you don’t like this beer, then you don’t like the style.

A great wheat brew... more crisp than i’d anticipated. yum, a great fruity taste and finish i’ll be buying again soon.

verry nice beer plesant scent flavour look and feel. Definately flavourfull to many flavours to mention, definately wheaty, spice, vanilla fruitty. beautifull cloudy light gold color. A damn good beer.

From the Jupiter brewfest. Cloudy gold with a nice white head. Aroma is so nice and full of wheat, yeast, bread, fruit, spices and I really get som honey and gum notes. Flavor follows suit with banana bread, gum, spices, yeast, wheat. What a nice beer.
