hogan873 (317), Joliet, Illinois, USA Sep 5, 2009 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. zakkbironia (82), Athens, Greece Sep 2, 2009 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. BlondeGrim (21), Netherlands Aug 29, 2009 500 ml, Konig Ludwig Weissbier Hell; hazy yellow with firm creamy head, Very cloudy, wheat, clove and banana, full body. Great weissbier. unclemattie (2370), Georgia, USA Aug 28, 2009 Tap @ tacomac, crabapple. Hazy golden pour. aroma of lemons and banana. Flavor of rich wheat malt. Finishes with banana and clove. Textbook and awesome. ChainGangGuy (2523), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Aug 27, 2009 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. Spab (236), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 24, 2009 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. drowland (1360), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Aug 22, 2009 Snagged a bottle of this while visiting Milwaukee. Not bad, but not the best German hefe out there. Nordcore (266), North of, Norway Aug 16, 2009 Bottle 50cl. Apperance; Yellow, hazy with a white head. Aroma; Wheat and some sence of malt. Flavor; wheat, malt and some lemon. ok weissen.
