Pinkus Hefe Weizen

Brewed by Brauerei Pinkus Müller
Style: German Hefeweizen
Münster, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

Mild grain aroma. Cloudy brown-yellow color with a small white head. Moderately sweet in the beginning getting a bitter tangy finish.

Bottle. Hazy light golden with a white head. Nice tart wheat bready malt aromas. Lightly tart grainy wheat, mild yeasty spicy clove and banana flavors. Mild.

Not too shabby, I was expecting a little more, not a whole lot on the smell side, but it was a nice drink on a hot day by the pool.

Bottle. Creamy white excellent mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Light malty and hoppy aroma. Week citrus notes. Light bitter flavor. Average light bitter finish. Oily palate. Standard boring hefe.

This poured a light cloudy yellow with a small white head and nice lacing. Nose of banana and citrus with some clove aromas. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor is mostly banana and citrus like the nose, and the finish is sour.

Aroma of light citrus, grass and nearly no banana. Appearance is cloudy with no head. Flavor was equal parts clover and citrus. The absence of banana flavors from a German Hefe was different. Palate was bubbly. Alright.

500mL bottle, courtesy of my mother-in-law’s magical fridge of secrets. Thanks! Pours a very hazy, whitish-brown color; thin, off-white head with decent lacing; kind of a sickly color... Light diacetyl presence atop basic bananas, mild bitterness, and citrus in the aroma; slightly off. Medium mouthfeel, lively carbonation: milky, slightly buttery character upfront, following the nose; below: citrus acidity, ripe bananas, and some breadiness and sweetness at the core; basic, well-carbonated, viscous but flawed hafeweizen; tastes better than it smells. Medium finish: citrus, cloves, and lingering slightly overripe sweetness.

Pours a very mirky yellowish color with a thin white head. It kind of looks like a banana beer. Weak citrus aroma with hints of wheat, banana and lemon zest. Bland flavor with hints of citrus and lemon peel, bread, banana and clove with a sweet and slightly sour lemon juice finish.
