Hacker-Pschorr (Hefe) Weisse

Bottle at Ulfborg RB tasting. Thanks a lot Missdolle. Poured hazy orange golden with a creamy head. Wheaty aroma with bubblegum notes and banana. I flavour clove, banana and wheat. Bit thin palate.

500ml bottle, bought in Toronto. Dark gold, slightly orange, darker than usual for the style, with a middling head. Fruity, spicy aroma of banana, clove, a hint of lemon and honey. Very rich. Has a rich, sweet, flavor, with lots of fruit and spice. Sweetish-style, not too sour at all, though not quite cake-like. Very well balanced and flavorful. One of the better ones, I think, and this in the bottle! Traveled well.

Aroma - Pungent clove, banana more subtle, toffee in the background, nice hefe aromas

Appearance - Cloudy tawny orange body under a voluminous, creamy white head that lasts nicely, and leaves some thick islands of lace

Flavor - Solid light malty sweetness initially, then a thirst quenching wheaty tartness comes into play, and just the softest of hop bitterness at the very end.

Palate - Medium body and carbonation, silky smooth, clean and dry on the finish.

Overall - A classic, well done hefeweizen in every regard.

Bottle @ TFODRBSG, Ulfborg, 2008.
[thank you, MissDolle]
Pours muddy yellow with a small, creamy, white head. Aroma is sweet, grainy and clear banana notes. Fine mouthfeel, okay balance. Sweet banana hits me first, then a serious maltiness and nice citric hoppy finish. Is there more?

(Bottle) Pours hazy yellow to light golden with a creamy white head. The aroma is sweet floral and wheaty with clear notes of banana. The flavour is of banana, wheat and flowers alongside a salty sting. The mouthfeel is soft and creamy. Light bitter and dry. Medium bodied.
