Schöfferhofer Hefeweizen-Mix Grapefruit

Brewed by Binding-Brauerei (Oetker Group)
Style: Fruit Beer
Frankfurt, Germany

Orange and grapefruit in the taste, very light in body and alcohol, quenching but not very moreish after just the one.

Bottle courtesy of boutip. Pours a hazy amber with a white head. Smells of grapefruit, candy, hay. Tastes of grapefruit and tangy with a finish that reminds me of orange soda.

It’s murky orange with a huge head. The aroma has notes of pink grapefruit and oranges. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of pink grapefruit and oranges. It’s very quenching and pleasant to drink.

This isn’t too bad. Bought it from a street stall set up next to the Brandenburg gate whilst the very last few stragglers were limping home in the Berlin Marathon for 2008. A good alternative to alcopops but there could be more grapefruit because that is one of my favourite juices.

Cloudy, pinkish-orangey colour. Smells like grapefruit, tastes like sweet grapefruit with a slight wheaty body. Somewhat creamy, grapefruity finish. Light and refreshing.

Hazy fruity orange. Grapefruit-pure aroma smells pulpy and good. Fizzy mouthfeel. Tastes like grapefruit juice and is thin, lacking wheat malt character and depth but is juicy and refreshing.

330ml clear bottle, hazy orangeish gold hue, with an off-white head, with a yeasty, light wheaty, intense pink grapefruit juicy nose, it’s almost like drinking a pink limonade, with a hint of alcohol, within a medium-bodied palate with a juicy grapefruit character with a zesty grapefruit skin, very close to a citrus cooler, leading towards a sweet grapefruit fruity finish.

Bottle. Hazy orange colour with large creamy white mostly diminishing head. Aroma and flavor is grapefruit.
