Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier

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

slighly sour aroma with a wheat color and thin head. taste is overwhelmingly yeasty with a lemony flavor. ends slightly tart and grassy. not bad, but ive had better hefes.

Poured a large frothy white head over a very cloudy straw colored body. Faint smell of honey, and citrus, mostly lemon. Wheat and grain taste, slightly sour, strong lemon and other citrus fruits, lasting citrus aftertaste. Foamy and zesty on the palate, easy to drink. If you want a citrus edge to your wizen - look no further.

On tap at Prost. Pours a cloudy yellow with medium white head and nice lacing. Banana and citrus on the nose. Pretty smooth on the palate. The flavor is nice and refreshing. Tasty!

I was very impressed with this beer. It was actually not too much money with a 500ml going for about two bucks USD. The after taste and appearance of this beer were amazingly refreshing

Had this beer on tap at Max’s Taphouse in Baltimore, served with a slice of lemon. A bright but cloudy, milky-yellow color with a medium-sized, foamy white head. It had a strong citrus and wheat aroma with some yeast and banana present too; also touches of lemon, straw, and grain. A veru sweet, lemon-fruit, and citrus taste, with some sourness too. A watery, thinner beer with low carbonation, but a somewhat drying finish.

Crushed with Jakebra. Very wheaty brew. Looks excellent. Smells aight, a little nast. Same in flavor, but overall it’s mostly a pleasant drinking experience.

Bottle. Pours quite an opaque/cloudy golden colour, with sediment swirling, with decent long-living head. Aroma of banana, some citrus, with yeast notes. Similar on the palate, though yeastier, and slight bitterness. Decent enough Hefeweizen.

The flavor of this one depends on how you get the yeast off the bottom of the bottle. If you shake it up and get chunks in your glass, it wont be near as good as if you swirl the beer around in the bottle until it is all gone from the bottom and the last 1/4 of the beer poured makes the glass of beer all that more cloudy, and tastes worlds better. I have noticed that you win some and loose some with this one but this one I am having now is a sure winner hence the high rating.
