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.

Some fruit taste, but foremost was a strong synthetic plasticy/rubbery flavor that I didn’t like. Sour aftertaste with an acetic apple taste throughout. I think they would have been better off leaving the malt out.

1/21/09 From the bottle. Aroma is sour banana forward with a spicy phenol background. Appearance is clear gold with a well maintained white head. Flavor is sour forward that fades to sweet and highly fruity with a very light peppering. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, creamy, with a low carb texture. Overall, quite good, but seems more like a standard German hef than a Dunkel.

Bottle. Hazy orange cloudy beer with a long lasting head. Aroma of clove, citrus, bananas bread and yeast. Flavor was similar, with light alcohol. Fizzy mouth.

Pours hazy peach with billowing beige head and lively carbonation. Aroma is of grapefruit, lemon, clove, and a touch of nutmeg. Very pronounced and complex. Flavor strikes a most excellent balance of malty sweetness, a welcomed hop backbone, and a throughly complex and pronounced spice aspect. Caramel, brown sugar and toffee give way to a subtle and caressing citrus character, and finally a delicious addition of clove and coriander. Palate is thick, smooth and full, allowing for a sugary coating followed by a slight dryness. Delicious.

Nice label, cloudy in the glass. Good tart aroma. Robust, fresh, nutty taste - I love this flavor which is unique to hefeweizen - a mixture of wheat and a certain type of yeast, perhaps? Notes of citrus and clove. This puts me in the mood for anything between midsummer celebrating to holiday season gatherings, or just sitting by myself at the end of the day, with a little of this liquid reward in my favorite beer glass.

Slightly cloudy dark orange pour with medium head. Aroma is very yeasty, as well as malty, some spice notes team up with a mild fruitiness making for a solid nose. Flavor is spice, banana, yeast, doughy. Goes down nice, making for quite a pleasent experience.

Brown-orange hazy beer with firm beige head. Sourish aroma with tones of dried fruit. Almonds and banana in the mouth. Harsh and round feeling.

Malty, banana, yeasty aroma. Pours a cloudy amber color with a big, rocky head. Very malty and I detect a little bit of clove flavoring in the finish. Nice wheat beer.
