Cloudy light orange color in my pint glass. Reasonable amount of head. Not any lacing though.

Interesting. Lots of wheat malt on the nose. Wonder what happened to the yeast aromas?

More wheat malt on the palate. Malty but lacking that proper hefeweizen yeast note.

Mouthfeel is good. This one is properly carbonated, as a hefeweizen should be.

Overall the beer is decent, but the startling lack of yeast on the palate and in the aroma drags this one down a little. I still put it above Paulaner in my bavarian hefeweizen hierarchy (bottled and available in the states):
1) Weihenstephaner 2) Hacker-Pschorr 3) Franziskaner 4) Erdinger 5) Paulaner

This is a good hefe from Germany, because crisp and clean. I had many great German beers out there, Edringer hold its own.

Looks: hazy brown and yellow & super bubbly straw color with a 2" deep white head, cleared nicely. Hea retention or lacing is not there , but great effervescence

Smell: fruit and slight yeast scent

Taste: slight lemon , orange notes and great earthy taste up front. Finishes fruits and very refreshing

Mouthful: Great carbonation and some syrups. The balances is there in this beer

Overall : This beer goes down vereasy. This beer holds it own agianst any hefe beers. Little or no aftertaste. It is very refreshing and perfect for a summer time.

The beer pours a nice dark gold hue with a foamy white head. The beer is quite cloudy due to the wheat. Smells hoppy, spicy, mild with notes of wheat. The beer tastes mellow with a hint of clove and a smooth caramel finish. Nice beer, would drink again.
