Commercial Description:
This is Royal Barvarian Hefeweizen. Why are the Bavarian Royal Family and King Ludwig so important to brewing history? The Bavarian Royal Family had sole rights to brewing Hefe-Weizen on Bavaria for over 200 years. No wonder we are the leading experts on wheat beers!

Aroma of banana, light cloves and some lemongrass. Appearance was translucent gold with creamy head. Flavor pretty much matched the nose. Palate was bubbly. A run of the mill weiss.

A: Large, white, frothy head... this baby hung around for a bit, and then dissipated to about 1/2-finger for the rest of drinking. Body is a nice, dark-yellow color, and very cloudy. S: Nice notes of wheat, lemon, and pepper. T: Damned nice hefe... large taste of pepper and other spices, with a wheaty, citrusy finish. Short-average duration... just like a good hefe should taste. M: Light-bodied, yet creamy, with soft-average carbonation. D: This beer goes down great, and is a perfect session brew at 5.5%... actually, it taste even less than that. Nothing really there to make it super special, but it’s still very good and I could drink ’em all day.

Flaske 0,5 l fra Systembolaget i Kiruna - merket "König Ludwig Weissbier". Lys gylden på farge. Høyt kremaktig skum. Uklar. Aroma av citrus og blomster. Smak av citrus og litt banan: Ganske standard hveteøl - som blir passelig søt. KI=3

12oz bottle (Konig Ludwig Weissbier). Pours golden and cloudy with a thick head that is slow to settle. The nose is fruity malt and citrus. The taste is nice and pleasant, lemon, banana, and bread flavors that are mingled with the hops with a well balanced malt flavor. Very smooth.

Pours a pale, cloudy straw color with a thick, creamy white head. Excellent head retention and lacing. Very strong aroma; hints of banana and spice. Kind of a subdued taste; not bold, but not terrible either. Much more banana taste than in other weissbiers I’ve had. Decent mouthfeel. All in all, a very nice beer.

bottle- (Konig Ludwig Weissbier) I expected a bit more from this brew. Very small head which diminished almost immediately, pungent aroma with little or no citrus, spicy with buttery, earthy undertones. Upon tasting nothing really stands out a hint of leather perhaps, very lively carbonation. Not a great weizen - but not bad on the whole either.
