Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier

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

Excellent Hefe. Definately one of the better I have tried. Not much more to say than whats already here...

When fresh this beer is divine. Clean tasting wheat beer with great sized head. Awesome aroma.

Full-bodied; the flavor lingers and is shooth but sparkling. Thick yeast-y carbonation as is the style. Bananas and cloves sums it up very nicely. Mildly citrus flavored but not bitter or acidic. A very nice Hefeweizen. Smell doen’t match the flavor but this is the olny bad mark I could find to give it.

Deep orange color. Cloudy. Looks so delicious. Citric nose. Tastes very well-balanced. Yeasty, citric, fruity. Goes down very smooth. I think it´s the best of the very easily avaible Weizens. Rerate: After drinking hundreds of bottles of this beer I´ve probably got to rate it higher, and it never ceased to amaze me, so a couple more points are justified.

A nice brown color. A delicious spicy brew. Had the clove flavor of a belgian. I definitly enjoyed this.

Another good Hefe. On par with Hacker Pschorr. I’d have to have side by side to determine a winner but they seem about the same to me.

This is one of my favorite hefes. Good amount of head, good cloudy yellow/amber color. A huge range of flavors can be found in this hefe... citrus, spice, fruit-punch-ish flavors... super-refreshing beer.

The Pope used to drink this beer.and it’s my favoorite beer so far. The drinking sensation is like drinking a velvet stuff. Pope has more credit iwith me now.
