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. Cloudy yellow beer with big head. Good looking. Slight banana aroma. Likewise with taste. Not as sweet as most Hefeweizen’s I’ve tasted. Little bitterness but a nice one for a hot summer day.

Nice aroma of fruits (banana, apple), spice, yeast. Taste is sweet and malty with hints of fruits. Very light body and semi-dry finish. Not my type of hefe-weizen.

Cloudy amber body with a soapy white head. Banana, bread, spice, and a touch of citrus make up the engaging aroma. Mild and creamy on the palate with decent carbonation. Citrus entry fades to a nice spicy finish with banana and clove. Very good hefeweizen.

1lt glass. First of all you have to know that drinking a good weissbier in a 1lt glass is perhaps one of the best feelings for a good beer fan. This one is not the best but surely satisfying. Hazy yellow color with thick white head. Honey and banana taste but not strong enough I believe. There sure are better ones.

While at Taco Mac (Perimeter) waiting for the 5 o’clock tapping of a firkin of Duck-Rabbit Porter with Cherries, I thought I’d warm-up with a nice, crisp hefe. Appearance: Pours out a tremendously cloudy, dull golden-hued body with a smallish, white head. Light lacing on the way down. Smell: Mild, vaguely sweetness malt nose with touches of grainy wheat bread and lesser, trivial notes of banana and clove. Taste: Lightly bready, grainy maltiness with some moderate traces of wheat and a medium-low amount of sweetness. Subtle tastes of banana and cloves. Soft, faintly tart touch of yeastiness. Distant, mildly spicy hop character with a light bitterness. Finishes semi-dry with a reasonable amount of carbonated crispness. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-plus carbonation. Drinkability: A crisp, thirst-quenching, pleasant hefeweizen that makes for decent summertime refreshment or for a good prelude to a cherry-packed porter.

500 ml bottle (as König Ludwig Weissbier). Pours a hazy yellow gold with large creamy white head. Wheat, banana in the nose. Very fruity flavour with a hint of spiciness. Fine carbonation; bit of a syrupy mouthfeel. Decent.
