Jun 26, 2005 Rating for König Ludwig Weiss
Poured murky, thick and wheaty with a thin white head. Surprised by the amount of maltiness in the aroma as opposed to the requisite yeast and banana. Instead I found a bit of caramel and breadiness (raw and baked) with some alcohol that invaded the sinuses. Started sweet and full-flavored with a mild, sour fruit ending, rather like plums. Mouthfeel was creamy yet dry while the finish was slightly chalky and astringent. I’m really glad my wife likes a good weiss otherwise I may have missed out on this one.

Dec 20, 2007 The yellow labels looks not so good. The beer in the glass is fine. But the beer tastes really stale and insipid. I was disappointed. Not a good beer.

Dec 28, 2008 Updated: Dec 29, 2008Draft at Ballydoyle, as “König Ludwig Royal Bavarian Hefe Weiss” In branded straighter-than-normal hefeweizen glass. Cloudy yellow, a quarter-inch white head that didn’t touch the lemon wedge stuck in the glass. Still started with a bit of Lemon Pledge smell, but this dwindled to a gentle base wheat smell. Taste is soft and just a little spicy. Usual hefe esters are not as strong, just a bit of clove, and no banana bomb, working well with the wheat and malt. Just a basic, average hefeweizen.
