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!

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.

One of the worst hefeweizens I have every had. Tasted with BMan1113VR. I thought that this one appeared to be filtered. Corney banana ester nose with some peanut butter and yeast. Taste is the same with wheat and short akward finish. Not good. quite a bit better on draft. re rated.

Aroma is sweet, banana, clove, and wheat. Taste is fizzy, lemon, banana wheat. Pours with a straw/golden hue, a huge head, and a very nice aroma of clove-centric banana. The appearance and the aroma are promising, but the taste is over-carbonated, and somewhat jumbled in it’s strange lemony mix of flavors. Overall, a good beer, but not world-class.

Poured with some head, but nothing ridiculous. The aroma was strikingly strong, bananas, spices, citrus all coming through strong. In the flavor, bananas and spices were strongest, although this one could have been a bit richer. A very good beer, and an above average hefe, but not the best of the hefe group. Would drink again, no doubt.

König Ludwig Weiss - Originally sampled from draught but unrated until this bottle from Uto. Straw coloured with a light cream head. Aroma of yeast and banana with a taste to match. Crisp with a light start and rich finish. A firm favorite, well suited to the bannofie pie for dessert.
