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. Pours a hazy golden body with a large fluffy white head. The aroma is peppery with clove notes and only a touch of banana fruitiness but I’d say it’s more spicy than anything. Soapy mouthfeel and there are flavours of bubblegum. Spicy notes are prevalent here again along with some lemon tartness in the finish. Pretty decent overall. Purchased at Bierspezi Hoheluft in Hamburg on May 17, 2006.

I had the bottle labelled Konig Ludwig. Clean and light, with a lightly spicy and lemony aroma. Appearance was a very pale cloudy yellow with smallish fizzy head that quickly dissipated. Flavor was light and mainly lemony, refreshing.

Pours hazy orange with a rich pillowy white head. The aroma has rich wheat with orange citrus notes, prominant banana esters and some spices. Medium body with a rich mouthfeel and good amount of carbonation. The taste starts with some citric flavors that is somewhat distracting and rich wheat. The finish has some astringency and spice. This is an okay hefe, but fall short in a few areas.

bottle - This is a very straightforward hefeweizen. It has a light, yeasty aroma. The flavor is mild. It’s too mild even for the style. While the flavor is decent, there’s certainly nothing offensive here, and it is refreshing, it’s too bland and thin. There are far better hefeweizens around.

My bottle says Konig Ludwig Weissbier. Off tart aroma with a strong ale attitude. Rocky thin head, hazy light beige yellow color. Welcomed creamy carbonation. Fine texture. Wheaty flavors that are simple and enjoyable. No bitter taste or linger. Overall a nice example of the style. Unique tho on style!

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle. Label says Konig Ludwig Weiss. Pours a light amber color with some floaters and a medium sized white head. The scent is wheaty and yeasty. The flavor is slightly sour wheat. A light toasted flavor lingers. There is a slightly "off" taste I can not identify. Pleasant but in general an uninspiring hefeweizen.

Botted as König Ludwig Weiss. Pours a hazy light amber with a thick white head. Aroma of lemon and spice. Light body and active carbonation. Banana, cloves and wheat in the taste with a quick and dry finish. Yup, it’s a German Hefeweizen.
