Erdinger Festweiße

Brewed by Erdinger Weissbräu
Style: German Hefeweizen
Erding, Germany

Not the best erdinger I have had. A little more dark and complex than a kristal but not a dunkel. some cloves and banana, maybe a hint of cinamon. poured a dark amber. somewhat fizzy and cloudy.

(br-btl navy-lbl, "Oktoberfest Weizen")

hzy-cpr, foamy-wh-head, nice-lace, med-eff, ^co2, med-body.

aroma: wheat-tart, mtllc, §silage, §alchl, no-hefe-esters(banana, clove, or bubblegum; well maybe just a faint hint of green bananas later on).

flavor is very clean. soft-§tart-fruit-wheat up front and §crml-malt ^co2 in the swallow. aftertaste is sticky but dryish(not sweet) §funky yeasty. no hefe-esters in the flavor either (likely the weihenstephaner strain).

unique as far as being somewhere between a purely pale-malt hefe and a dunkel. has the clean crispness of the pales but is a little more complex and sweet, and does not have as much minerality as most of the dunkels.

Labelled as Oktoberfest Weissbeir. Aroma of sweet grainy wheat, some banana. Starts lightly sweet with a touch of hop bitterness turning more bland toward a thinner smooth finish.

Amber pour with thick white head. The nose is lightly wheaty but there is very little in the way of clove of banana. There is a touch of light ale fruitiness and a touch of caramel. Moderately sweet but very bland. There is a fairly light wheaty character, but not much else. Really, really boring.

Cloudy amber/cider color; Light to medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of wheat & bananas; Flavor of wheat, light bananas & citrus, with some lemon overtones; Overall, seems a little lighter than a regular Erdinger but still a good brew.

Ködös,opálos sötét narancssárga színe van amin keményen ül a kétujjnyi szivacsos fehér hab,ami lassan esik össze.Illata banános,citrusos és enyhén a tejkaramella cukorra emlékeztet.Íze hozza a szokásos búzás jegyeket amiből semmi sem lóg ki feltűnően,szépen kiegyensúlyozott.Elég jó teste van,szinte harapni lehet és elég élénk is.Utóízében kellemesen jelentkezik a komló kesernyés zamata de nem nyomja el az élesztős,gyümölcsös jegyeket.Finom és nagyon itatja magát de hiányoltam belőle egy kis fesztiváli pluszt,lehetett volna egy kicsit erősebbre is főzve.

Bottle.
Pours a decent, somewhat thick cheddar orange with an aroma of malty peach and sweet raisin. Flavor is flat malt bread with bitter undertones and a touch of bready peach in the finish. Average mouthfeel. Not bad, but not spectacular.

Pours light amber with a big cream colored head. Aroma is light but with hints of banana and light fruits. Flavor is a mix of bready and caramel malts with a little bit of banana and spice.
