Commercial Description:
This Beer is bottled in 500ml SCHNEIDER bottles.
This unique beer is the result of the long friendship of Schneider brewmaster Hans-Peter Drexler and Brooklyn brewmaster Garrett Oliver. The two brewmasters feel that Schneider & Brooklyner Hopfen-Weisse represents the quality, tradition and terroir of the Bavarian Hallertauer hop region paired with the innovation and creative energy for which Brooklyn is famous.

Hazy orange in colour, insanely large off-white coloured head with excellent retention and lacing. The aroma is very lemony with lots of wheat, citrus, yeast and must. The flavour is of pepper spice, yeast, lots of citrus, wheat, grassy, soft and creamy. Yeasty mouthfeel, medium body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes with a light peppery spiciness with lots of yeast.

This was very good, extremely refreshing. The final pour from the bottle brought on a fantastic murky brown colour with some hops becoming noticable at the very end.

500ml bottle obtained in a trade with kmweaver, thanks Ken.

Unique and exactly what I expected. Hoppy and heffey. They actually compliment each other better than I thought they would. Still pretty fruity though. I found it to be surprisingly refreshing.

Bottled. Hazy orange colour, small white head. Aroma is sweet apricot, grass and yeast along with some mild hoppyness. Flavour is quite the same with some acidic wooden notes. A strange brew.

Bottle at the RBESG08 Grand tasting. Alround rating: Very eastery, bitter and dry, banana and grassy hop clash. Far to carbonated.

Really don’t know what to say about this one. Tasted like nothing I’ve had before. Good but different. Just like it’s suppose to be > a hoppy hefe. Way to much yeast/sediment for me though. Hops seemed to overpower the wheat flavors.

Bottled at RBESG. Cloudy deep golden, rich head. Orangey banana aroma. Medium-full bodied. Fruity and yeasty, juicy and aromatic. Feels lighter than it’s size. By weizenbock-standards unusual amounts of hop bitterness finishes it off.
