Schneider & Brooklyner Hopfen-Weisse

Brewed by Weissbierbrauerei G. Schneider & Sohn
Style: Weizen Bock
Kelheim, Germany

Bottle. Pour is murky dark yellow with frothy white head. Aroma is pineapple, cloves, wheat, cinnamon, light hop, and orange. Flavor is sharp an spicy with pineapple up front and peaches, clove, and wheat to follow. Finish is sweet and wheat with lingering spicy notes. I like this beer

very cloudy orange-tan. a - orange, banana, cinnamon, clove, sugar, oregano?!, bread, Parmesan cheese. t - very peppery, spicy, alcohol, lemon, cheese!. points for the really long hop finish. p -buttery creamy body. pleasant and interesting

Bottle. Pours an average sized (for a Hefeweizen), fluffy, white, lasting head. Clear, deep golden body with abundant yeast clouds and active C02 bubbles. Looks fabulous! Pleasant aroma of wheat malt and spicy, herbal noble hops. Looks like they dry-hopped with Hallertauer. A little bit of Bavarian countryside grass. My only knock on the aroma is the presence of alcohol. Smells a tad boozy. Taste is first and foremost dominated by the yeast - dough, banana, a touch of bubble gum, clove, and vanilla. Some citrus is also present in the flavor profile. Like the aroma, my one gripe with the flavor is the boozy alcohol. Not as bad as some 8%+ beers fall victim to, but still more than necessary. Medium-light, creamy body with lively carbonation and a somewhat bitter finish. Balanced though. Overall a really good pale Weizenbock that could be stellar if the booziness were diminished. I don’t think it necessarily needs to have less alcohol, but cooler fermentation temperatures would possibly help.

The Brooklyn version was better, but this is one of my favorite light-colored wheat beers ever nonetheless.

Bottled at RBESG 08 ... Hazy orange ... lively fruity nose ... very light very fruity ... juicy and bubblegum... 3.6

TK2 bottle at home ... amber ... short lived white head ... light soapy lemon little yeast ... light pine hop ... quite bready... juicy ... some hop resins ... 3.5

ok on to side by side with its Brother ...colour more yellow golden ... nose is softer and more soapy ...duller up front but seems to have more depth and a more complex finish ... I suspect this would be a bit easier to drink lots of but it just doent seem to hit the spot quite so well. 3.6

Unclear dark golden with a medium white head. Heavy wheat aroma along with sweet fruits like mango and mandarine. Sweet wheaty flavor with a sharp alchohol leading to an alchohol bitter finish

Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of joss. It pours a really murky milky copper orange beer with a tall, nicely lasting white head which leaves a beautiful lacework. The aroma is extremely interesting, fresh and mindblowingly good. Yasmin, peach, apricot, vitamin tablets, yeast with a huge amount of blood orange and mango showing up which is accompanied by bittering hops. Wonderful taste. Reminiscent of Unibroue Trois Pistoles in a strange way- very fruity with a similar yeasty touch, though different in style and hop profile. Some marmite sneaking accompanied by wild strawberries, yasmin and mango. Sweet. The hops add a lot to this beer (dry hopping) which results in a relatively low bitterness. (Though high for the style of Wiezen Bock). Hops, tropical fruits an licorice in the finish. Schneider Aventinus is really overrated in my opinion- this Weizen Bock transcends the latter. Thanks a lot joss for this fantastic beer!

Skarpt markerad beska för att vara en veteöl som ramar in upplevelsen och fyller den till brädden med ett smakrikt flöde av allt från apelsin till banan. Ett helt orangeri av dofter och aromer.
