On 14th Jan 2012 I decided to have a lager/pilsner/helles/light beer evening: a 500ml bottle of this beer was the fourth to be opened. Poured into a Franziskaner Weiss Glass, it almost looked like a crystal weiss it was so clear, on checking the inside base of the bottle (out of date by two months) I could see most of the yeasty sediment had settled rather than join the rest of their mates in my glass. The liquid that did come out was lively enough, plenty of bubbles rising through the slight haze towards a full white head.

The smell was weak for a hefeweizen, some wheat and yeasty aromas but I was expecting the usual vanilla and banana type smells, they did not appear.

The taste was a little disappointing too, wheat being the main flavouring and again none of the typical hefeweizen trademark banana and vanilla hits. Expected so much from this, got so little.

The best part of this beer is the art work on the label, says it all really!

Interesting label art. 500ml bottle. Midestens haltbar bit 01.09.11.

It pours an extremely light but hazy gold. The head is airy, foamy, and whit and leaves some ok lacing.

The smell is yeasty. It doesn’t really have a pronounced clove or lemon scent or even the usual banana scent. But there are hints of each. What we have here is just a musty yeasty smell with some fruitiness and bread. Maybe some pineapple and dough in there.

The flavor is more on the tarter lemon side. There still is a bit of rottenness to it. It also has a bit more clove and wheat flavor.

It isn’t that great of a hefeweizen but is worth a try.
