Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier

Brewed by Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu (InBev)
Style: German Hefeweizen
Munich, Germany

Bottle. Murky orange colour with large white head. Sweet, yeasty aroma. Very mellow flavour with the usual banana hints and vanilla in the finish. Remarkably light and crisp palate. Very drinkable.

Pours a hazy gold with a 2 finger rocky white head that has good retention. Aroma is huge on dried banana chips, some clove, and a hint of lemon. Flavor is mellow banana sweetness, grainy wheat, lemon, yeasty bread rolls, black pepper, a decent helping of earth mustiness, and some clove spice to the finish along with some vanilla aftertaste. Body is dry, astringent and slightly acidic.

First beer rating and my favorite beer - may be biased. Murky golden beer with a golden thick head calls my name from the glass. Nice citrus and banana tastes.

12 oz bottle imported to USA. Great head as most Weiss bier’s sweet tasting hint of citrus and full of carbonation. A good beer. I wish I had the larger bottle size. a very good summer bier as are most Weissbier’s.

Murky golden, pretty basic pale weizen head. Strongly yeasty nose, wheat, slight cellar, vanilla and ripe banana. Wheaty flavor, same yeastiness and cellar, little alcohol, quite low on fruitiness. Not all that fresh, but otherwise good.

From tall bottle pours golden yellow with plush white head and characteristic haze. Aroma of banana and faint clove. Soft mouthfeel leads into balanced banana esthers and clove phenols as well as some orange. Finish grows more dry and clovey.
