It was high pressure in that bottle, ater the cork had disappered I put the thing on the table - after 5 sec it started to spurt. No wonder the fermentation (0,5 cm 1/2 a year storage) was mixed in!
AR.: yeast, strawberry, apricot
AP: weize cloudy, mostly lasting rocky head
F: yeast, strawberry, apricot, german äppelmos, medium strong bitterness - long lasting finishing. I can recommend this Weisse, but be careful while opening! Oakes (8093), gone rambling, Vietnam
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 27, 2008 Hazy beige with fluffy 2cm head. Incredibly appetizing aroma - yeasty, spicy, lemon, melon, pear...gorgeous. Lemony, marshmallowy body with firm pale maltiness and pepper alcohol. Light clove and nutmeg. Rich, but refreshing, Very complex. A fantastic take on the style. Bockyhorsey (2543), Mesa, Arizona, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Dec 11, 2008 Bottle courtesy of eaglefan538. Real good floral aroma on the nose. Hazy gold body with white sustaining head and good lacing. Lot of flavors citrus at first. Then sweet sugar pepper and spices are in the mix. A sweet pepper aftertatse left on palate. Good brew after a night at work. Should sleep like a baby today. harrisoni (6803), Ashford, Kent, England
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 20, 2008 Bottle at Beer Exposed. Probably the best aroma of the day. The grapefruit and the wheat. In mouth, so full and creamy and then liquid grapefruit on finish and sherbert hop. Outstanding. Harsher hop than the German version. pivnizub (5033), Bochum, Porúří, Germany
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Feb 12, 2009 Bottle (kindly delivered by asheft!) - sampled simultaneously with the "german" version: Golden, cloudy, mid-sized fluffy "dirty" white head; extreme "sticky" piney hoppy nose with illusions of fresly mowed grass and a lighter wheaty-fruity background; very solid dry bitter flavour, creamy MF, medium to full bodied; smooth, lingering, dry hoppy and grainy finish. Great, great stuff.....
The german equivalent is made by the use of different hops, which seem to be - compared directly - a little, little bit less aromatic. Nevertheless also a superb brew....... DrBayern (1137), Morehead City, North Carolina, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | May 10, 2008 22 oz. bomber on 5/10/2008. Hazy deep gold body under a creamy, billowing white head that lasts and lasts, leaving thick, sticky lace - phenomenal looking. Wonderful aroma that has the characteristics of a German wheat with the banana and clove esters underneath and the citrus qualities of the Amarillo hops on top, a unique aroma that works well.
Medium body and carbonation, not overly effervescent as I expected after I saw the pour. Very smooth, almost creamy, yet clean and lightly dry. on the palate.
A solid, light malty base supports a balanced, soft grapefruit bitterness that extends into a long dry finish. This is just excellent in all respects. 17thfloor (1486), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Jun 18, 2008 Opens with a pop and a puff of smoke! Great pour, deep dark golden orange with so many tiny bubbles and a HUGE creamy off-white froth that sticks around forever. Wow, great aroma, sooo hoppy, spicy, banana, clove... fantastic! Tried to take a sip and it left white suds all over my nose and upper lip! Its says 7.8% however my bottle says 8.5. Im inclined to think 7.8 as it is way less hot and more manageable than the Schneider-Brooklyner. The stronger hop character and better wheat/barley malt ratio really balance and fill it out. Sweet and sticky, medium body, but still fluffy and very drinkable. Long juicy hop finish, very rich. Some butterscotch and orange peel. $%*$*Q(%@ sooo good! blinesam (233), USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 12, 2007 My favorite beer the German beer fest. This combines the bitterness of an IPA with the sweet and refreshingness of wheat. reminds me of the first time they mixed peanut butter with jelly.
