Ettaler Benediktiner Weizen

Bottled 0,50L. Abundant, strong, resistant head. Elegant orange dark color, much lively and bubbly. Fresh aroma with clear mildew notes, banana, lemon, honey. Complex and explosive taste, much dense and fresh one. Pleasant and indeed rich.

(bottle) Cloudy, bright orange to amber colour with a big and rocky foamy white head. Sweet and moderately wheaty nose with strong clovy spices and very shy fruity notes in the background. Moderately sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a soft carbonation. Wheat-malty chewy taste with distinctive notes of ripe banana; the clove character is surprisingly mild; sweet malty and fruity finish with a whiff of sourness. A good Weizen at second sight (14.VIII.09).

Draught. Medium high creamy and lasting white head. Hazy orange body. Mild fruity, apple pear, aroma. Sweet banana flaovr with little hops bitterness, low carbonation and a long aftertaste.

Draught@Beer Hunters. Copper-amber color, decent cloudy off-white head. Light lemony, slightly sour-earthy nose with hints of sweet bread. Tart, sweet malty, lemony flavor. After reading Miksu’s rating: we may have an infected batch in Finland.
