Enjoyed at Loreley's in NYC.

Had this side by side with a Franziskaner Hefe on tap in the same kind of glassware.

A - Poured into a 1L Hofbrau mug. Hazy orange medium orange in color with a large white fluffy head. OK retention but really good lacing.

S - Spice, clove, banana, wheat, the aroma was more pronounced than the Franziskaner I compared it with.

T - Wow, just fantastic. Wheaty and really complex. More complex than the nose lets on but with all the same sort of flavor profiles.

M - Exactly what youd expect. Palate coating and almost heavy on the tongue which was unexpected but enjoyable. The carbonation really cleanses your palate.

O - I must say I enjoyed this one just slightly better than the Franziskaner I had side by side with them. But it was such a small margin that it was almost non-existent. World class stuff here. From the claimed oldest brewery in the world you wouldnt expect anything less.

Serving type: on-tap
