Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier

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

Wow! Distinguished by a very snappy bite. Very nice flavor, aroma a bit subdued comparatively. On my recent German Wheat mini-binge, this one shines through as a keeper.

Pours a hazy golden yellow. Aromas of bread/grains/ and some citrus. Had a taste of yeasty grains with some spice and citrus.

Hazy amber with a weak white head. Sweet malty, wheaty, fruity aroma. Somewhat thin and light. Ther flavor is subtle hoints of wheat and yeast. So-so.

Bottle. Poured a thick head, nice lacing. Aroma of spice and yeast. Taste is of wheat and a little spice. Not bad at all.

Draft at Flying Saucer Nashville, served in the proper glass by a sssssmokin waitress in white lace stockings. Pours a cloudy golden orange with a white head. Typical banana clove aroma and nice refreshing, but earthy texture (from the yeast). Nice pale wheat malt backbone with balanced accents of clove and citrus, with the right amount of sweetness. Yeasty finish. Nice beer.

Nice looking head. Medium-bodied and spicy. A good weiss-bier.

Light sweet aroma, wheat and yeast notes. Cloudy golden orange, rocky head. Light smooth mouthfeel, clove and light banana notes. Fruity but not very tastefull. A little bit thin at the end. Overrated, in my opinion.

Pours deep, hazy bold with creamy head that quickly dissipates. Very subtle nose in my sample. Very lively. Abrupt finish.
