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!

Bottle: Poured a dirty beige color weizen with a huge foamy pure white head with good retention and some minimal lacing. Aroma of banana and cloves is too subtle for style. Taste is a mix between some medium wheat malt with traces of banana and cloves esters. Something resembling smoke is also noticeable but out of place within the style. Full body with limited filtration with some good carbonation. Not as clean and ester are a bit off but still enjoyable.

50 cl bottle (as König Ludwig Weissbier), hazy yellow colour, big white head, yeast aroma with balanced banana and wheat notes, sweet flavor, medium body, light finish with yeast aftertaste, nothing special for a hefeweizen

Super cloudy brown-gold body, a fluffy white head discolored a little. Yeasty cinammon and cloves on the nose. Medium body. Spice cake with banana undertone and a light milky-sugary wheat at the end that fades fast.

On tap at Castle on KIng in September. Looks as good as a beer can - bright glowing hazy yellow, big long lasting white head. Aroma is stuffed full on bananas and clove with some yeast. Wow, what a good start! Taste is very good - after the standard and expected yeast and clove it has a really neat grainy/dry finish and that makes you want another sip immediately. Maybe not as carbonated as, say, the local - and highest rated for the style - Dennisons Weissbier, and this, not as refreshing, but equal to that beer is just about every other way. What a wonderful surprise to find on tap out here.

Cloudy with compact head. Aroma of cloves with slight esters. Tasted clean with slight cloves and fullish body. Overall a bit one dimensional for me with a little bit to much body.

Golden colored brew. Aroma is grainy and tasty. Flavor is wheat, yeast and some sweetness. Nice smooth flavor.
