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!

Bottled König Ludwig. 50cl. It pours as hazy yellow beer with a decent rocky white head. Rather sweet, a touch of spiciness, bananas and overripe apples, notes of plums, slightly bland taste, mouldy, a bit sour. Light grassy, toasty, citrussy finish.

Bottle of Konig Ludwig Weiss. Citrusy and bready aroma rises from a traditional weiss pour. Very drinkable with a light finish, this brew has hints of yeast, lemon and spice. Although I can’t really pull the banana aroma out as many can, I definitely noted the flavor, particularly in the aftertaste. Somewhat unique, this was an enjoyable drink

Bouteille, courtoisie de Jean-Marc G. . De couleur dorée et légèrement voilée. Nez de levures fruitées (bananes et agrumes), de blé, léger de gomme balloune, d’épices (clou de girofle) et de houblon herbeux (herbe mouillée) aux notes florales ainsi que des notes de pain. Mince-moyenne en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-fort et légèrement croustillant ainsi qu’une texture légèrement crémeuse et aqueuse. Goût de levures fruitées (citron et zest, moyen de bananes) et moyennement épicé (clou de girofle, notes de coriandre) avec des notes de gomme balloune lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût asséchant de blé accompagné d’un goût de pain puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé) aux petites notes florales ainsi qu’un goût de levures. Post-goût moyen aux notes sèches, légèrement amer de houblon herbeux, de levures, de blé et fruité (zest de citron, pelures de bananes).

As Konig Ludwig Weiss. Aroma of banana, a bit of yeast, and something of pilsener hop. Cloudy gold color with a ferocious white head that does a little lacing. Starts with medium body, banana, more banana, then yeast and some spice. More than clove. The carbonation renders it nearly chewy. Then it thins, and the finish is clovy spice, in a light way, followed by watery banana, and maybe a bit of hop. Very unbitter finish. Very good ale. Real ale by the way.

Konig Ludwig Weissbier; nice label and cap. Pours a dark hazy yellow with a huge, frothy, white head and excellent lacing. The aroma is a yeasty citrus and grass with a light bubble gum note in the background. Thin to medium-bodied with average carbonation and a clean finish. The flavor is citrus, bubble gum and bananas with a crisp wheat finish. This is one of the best hefe’s I’ve ever tried--a must try for anyone that likes wheats.
