Paulaner Hefeweissbier

Brewed by Paulaner Brauerei (Schörghuber)
Style: German Hefeweizen
Munich, Germany

On draft at the Flying Saucer. Served in a pint glass, oh well. Has a light orange color with rich white head. Aroma is of banana, but not overwhelmingly so. Also note some unidentifiable citrus as well. Tastes of banana and apricot as well as phenols (clove and styrifoam?). Still the best hefe I’ve had.

Smells of clove and nice wheat aromas. Pours cloudy orange/yellow with the yeast suspended. Tastes of wonderful spicy wheat and a little butter flavor from the malt which is nice. Finishes suprisingly clean after all the complexity. A brilliant example of a weizen that should serve as a control for rating other Hefe-Weizens.

HITW, Waterloo 23/08/09 - Fantastic Wheat beer, thick, cloudy, citric, great aroma of yeast and apricot. Strong firm body with a velvet texture. How all wheat beers should be

Got this one on tap at Old Chicago in Madison. Hazy gold pour, some citrus flavor, minimal bitterness. Excellent hefe.

Bottle dated 05/2007. Cloudy, golden appearance. I was barely able to see the outline of my fingers through the glass. Banana flavor followed by very subtle honey and citrus notes. A nice accompaniment to sitting outside by the pool.

29.08.2008, 0,5l Bottle. The colour is golden and the beer is cloudy and lively carbonated. Fruity aroma with citrus and flowers. Very fresh and good beer.

From bottle. August Dayton Beer Tasting event - Favorite Summer Brews. Pours cloudy yellow/orange with big, long-lasting white head. Classic Hefe aroma of banana, clove, and grain. Balanced flavors with a long finish. One f my go to Germans.

Cloudy amber color; Medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of wheat, slight banana & clove; Flavor primarily of wheat & banana, some light citrus as well; Very nicely balanced; This is an excellent hefe-weizen - right up there with Weihenstephaner.
