We invited the brewers from Weihenstephan, the oldest brewery in the world, to our brewery to concoct a co-created beer of epic proportions. The resulting beer takes both our signature styles, IPA and hefeweizen, to create a whole new beery entity. The beer rocks a classic Hefeweisse base of wheat and Munich malt with aromas of banana and clove and a distinctive trademark haziness. On top of this we have layered a tapestry of US citrus hop character from Centennial and Simcoe.

(Bottle) Golden amber colour with big, frothy, off-white head. Malty, spicy nose with notes of white bread, citrus, apricots, grapefruit, some banana, white pepper and a touch of clove. Malty, spicy taste with bread, apricots, lemon peel, grapefruit, clove and a gentle citric/floral bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Tasty and well balanced, with fresh hops, but not aggressively bitter. The weizen flavours of bread, clove and banana add an extra dimension. Nice one.

Bottle at Brew Beers and Ciders, Sukhumvit, Bangkok. Poured a hazy medium amber with a thin white head. The aroma is yeast, citrus, light grain, banana, grassy hops. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a citrus, yeast, medicinal floral hop palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Too floral. The hop combo does not work for me.
