Schneider Georg Schneiders Wiesen Edel-Weisse

Brewed by Weissbierbrauerei G. Schneider & Sohn
Style: German Hefeweizen
Kelheim, Germany

Bottle sample at Union Beer Trade Tasting, NYC. Hazy golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is an interesting combo of typical weisse notes and a sharp, tandy hoppiness. Nice body and mouthfell. Flavours are well-integrated, with the pronounced hops melding nicely with the lemon and banana weisse flavours. Pretty nice stuff.

label reads "schneiders organic wiesen edel-weisse". slightly hazy orange gold with no head. banana, and caramel aroma. flavor is sweet and fruity with mostly banana standing out. some spices and hops too. light body.

Bottle. Pours cloudy yellow/orange, with a medium sized white head. Aroma is banana, bread, light citrusy notes, clove, and a bubblegum sweetness. Flavor is banana, spice, the sweet bublegum-like note, and bread. The high carbonation takes away from the flavor though.

From a 500 ml. euro brown bottle with a coded freshness date on the back label. Poured like you would with any hefe weizen, swirling the yeast in the bottle. Poured a cloudy amberish dull orange with a foamy white head that settled into a thin lacing. Aromas of wheat breadiness and lemon, spicy clove with a little nuttiness and very estery. Moderate carbonation and a malty crisp, creamy smooth medium bodied mouthfeel. The clove spiciness is the first thing I noticed in the taste with a dry pepperiness to it, sour bready malts meshed a with nuttiness from the yeast, a nice lemon fruitiness towards the end where you start feeling alcohol warmth as well, and a sour wheat malty finish.

Classic hazy yellow pour with tiny ring of a white head. Aroma is assertive with sweet malts, wheat and yeast. Flavor starts off with sweet malts, banana and some yeast spiciness. Then the wheat flavor takes over briefly. Flavor ends mild and somewhat sweet. Nice brew.

Pours slightyl hazed, dirty pale yellow w/ a medum spritzy froth. Aroma of sweet malt w/ a slight tartness. Light to medium nectar w/ ample residual effers. Flavors are very malty w/ a defined holiday spice. Finish has a nice crisp bittering w/ spice. Complex. Tastes better as it warms. Overall: an enjoyable specimen with a spicey character.

Dark golden body with a heavy white head. Wheat and yeast dominate the aroma. Light citrus with yeast accents, some fruit in the taste. A yeasty ending.

Very slightly hazy light amber body with a small of-white head. Sweet light banana and honey aroma. Sweet banana flavor, some orange peel hints, and a touch of spice.
