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.

Combined rating from bottles and Munich brewhouse - Pours dark caramel (light brownish red) with a thicky foamy off-white head. Aroma of cloves, toffee, apples, banana, lightly toasted bready malts, and delicate spices. Taste is all about the spicy yeast. Phenolic notes of cloves, pear, and apple. Sweet chewy initial taste becomes more dry and influenced by the wheat malt. There’s plenty of toffee, caramel sweetness, but it’s mostly hidden behind the immense yeastiness. Mouthfeel is soft and supple with lush carbonation. Complex and easy to drink. Certainly my favorite dunkelweizen, I just wish Ayinger would start dating their bottles.

Delicious, peppery and spicy aroma, complemented by cloves, a little orange and lemon. Pours with a nice large head, and a deep auburn color. Taste is very peppery, lively, yeast and lemon, wheat. Full palate, very nice.

OK, I’ve been waiting for this for a while, cause I had to save up to purchase it. Got it today at 3 Sons, Wexford. Upon opening, the aroma’s clean and not too detectable but does have a hint of yest in the background. In my poor steeler stein, it pours almost like American wheat but more sophisticated. Beautifully delicious creamy taste with no insulting tones what so ever. Finish is just great! Perhaps the perfect beer except for the price.

Very murky brown color with a large off-white fizzy head. Very complex nose, with banana and clove standing out, as well as apples and darker fruit smells. Creamy feel with a medium body. Carbonation is strong and fizzy. Semi-sweet taste of banana and spices with a lightly acidic finish. Complex and very drinkable.

Strong apricot, banana, and subtle clove bouquet. Very dingy gold color, thick off white head. Apricot and banana flavor, with a light lemon grass finish. Delicious, nicely tart, and refreshing. This is an outstanding wheat beer. It isn’t terribly dark for a dunkelweizen, but who cares? The taste rocks!

Absolutely delicious. Think, foamy head. Very hazy dark brown. Immediately malt and banana aroma. Tastes fruity, creamy in the mouth. Highly recommended.

One of my favorite German wheat beers that is available in Texas. Dark golden straw in color. Yeasty and malty with fruit aromas. An excellent summertime brew.
