Hofbräu Münchner Weisse

Brewed by Staatliches Hofbräuhaus München
Style: German Hefeweizen
Munich, Germany

12 oz bottle. Purchased in a mix and match 6 pack. The beer pours an orange that is thinner than other hefes. However, the aroma is extremely wheaty. Nice taste. Nice.

Perfect banana, clove, hay, and hop aroma. Cloudy golden pour with a thick fluffy head. Taste is a bit off balance with more clove than banana, but good nonetheless. Weak finish.

Bottle: Clear yellow colour,creamy head. Aroma of citrus,flowers,banana and yeast. Flavor is almost the same, thin to medium body,and thin to medium finish.

50 cl bottle - Pours a hazy light golden color with a big white head. Light spotty lacing. Aroma is yeast, banana, and grass. Flavor is light citrus and esters. Light to medium body. Taste a lot like an American Hefe. A good, easy drinking beer.

per quanto riguarda la hefe, quella della Hofbrau è la prima in assoluto che io abbia assaggiato. Non posso certo dire che sia un capolavoro, ma continuo a trovarla piuttosto bevibile (la Schwarze pure mi piace). Comprata più e più volte al supermercato.

[brown, 500 ml bottle] Sort of musty aroma, but containing the characteristic banana/clove of this style. A little bit of lemon and strawberry in the nose as the beer warmed. Cloudy dark yellow with an eternal white blanket. The flavour is also sort of typical hefeweizen, but with a spicy melanoidiny caramel that comes in late. Also, a touch of bitterness that was not unpleasant, but unexpected. Medium body, high carbonation, a bit sweet finish. Overall not bad, but not really noteworty either.

Dark golden, slightly hazy wheat with a moderate head. The aroma has notes of wheat and fruit, just like the flavour. I also find notes of spice (coriander) and a bit less banana as in the average weiss bier. It’s OK, but ordinary.

Bottle. Muddy amber coloration, with a fantastic beige cream, consistent and persistent. Citric, fruity and floral, with notes of clove. Very drinkable.
