Commercial Description:
Our Ayinger Ur-Weisse is an old-fashioned wheat with some fine roasted malt to give it more color and flavor than golden hefe- weisse. It has an immense crown of lovely foam held proudly above a robe of translucent amber. On the palate, malt and yeast predominate, with a delicious balance of fruit and bread-like yeast. The taste is complex, with suggestions of soft fruit, apple, and, in the finish, perhaps, even cloves.

17 oz bottle: Aroma is a bready, yeast, roasted caramel malt, light fruits, and spices. Appearance is a murky brown with a thin off white head that diminishes into a soapy film at the top of the glass. Taste is rather effervescent with a bubbly apple and and rather mild caramel malt taste with the yeast present in the the taste as well. Other flavors are clove, some banana, and bread. Overall, It’s a very drinkable Dunkelweizen. Wheat and with a nice wiezen texture.

Bottle. Light notes of cereal, flowers, soap and damp basement with a hint of clove and a strong sour milk smell. Head is fizzy white, mostly lasting and has fair lacing, color is murky brown. Flavor starts moderately acidic and lightly bitter, then finishes lightly acidic and sour. Palate is light to medium, watery and has a fizzy carbonation. The sour milk smell was hard to get over, maybe it had something to do with all the other hoppy beers I had that day. I’ll re-rate it by itself next chance I get.

Translucent in appearance with brownish coloration. Smells okay--wheaty. Tastes rather lightish, with some bananna and yeast taste.

Extreme cloudiness. Bread pudding colored pour with some bubbles.. .totally opaque with a medium white sudsy head. Smells great, like a hefe but with a little bit of nuttiness to balance out that banana sweetness. Palate is extremely light... unbelievable for how thick and sticky it looks. The carbonation sizzles a little bit, really interesting. Sticky toffee flavor, lots of clove, some yeast, very strange finish... like fresh squeezed apples.

Beautiful looking. Apple is prevalent in the aroma with a bit of banana if anything. I could easily mistake this for apple cider if I didnt know better. Taste is definitely a weisbier with something extra.

This beer is like Ayinger Hefe Weisse with more of a bite. The longer I drank it the better it tasted. Was it a case of, "The women all get prettier at closing time"? Hell No! This is great weizen beer. Once again, I’ll let others bore with the usual "Banana, cloves, bubble gum" descriptions.

banana aroma with deep roast is reminiscent of banana bread without the spice. deep malt flavor accentuates the softer edges. great.
