Das Gaffel Wiess ist die obergärige Bierspezialität aus der Domstadt am Rhein – hell, ungefiltert und naturtrüb. Bis zur Mitte des letzten Jahrhunderts war das Wiess das Nationalgetränk der Kölner und somit der Urvater des Kölschs, wie wir es heute kennen. Der süffige und milde Charakter macht diesen Bierklassiker zu einem echten Geschmackserlebnis – besonders in geselliger Runde. Prost zesamme!

330ml Bottle online from Raynville Superstore. Pours a hazy amber colour with a medium sized creamy white head. Aromas of white bread, ripe fruits with some citrus, floral and peppery spice. Taste has more ripe fruits and citrus notes, more bread and a little more peppery spice. Thin to medium body with average carbonation. Not bad but i would not be bothered if i did not have it again.

330ml bottle purchased at the Offie, Leicester and drunk at home. Light to mid-yellow/gold, hazy with a small ring of white head. Sourdough yeast notes in the aroma, with some ripe citrus. Sweet taste, again very bready with touches of bright hop. Some toffee and cookie dough on the finish. Light body with intense carbonation. I'm fond of this.

Wiess (not to be confused with Weiss) is a historical beer, the direct predecessor to the modern Kölsch. I'd love to have a proper Kölsch to compare it with, but this is certainly in the same realm.

Tap. Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is yeast, bready, fresh, mild grains. Taste is the same, not as expressive as other Wiess I've had. Silky mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Alright.

bottle, courtesy of pivnizub, diky moc! Hazpy yellow with a tall white head, fruity aroma. Light-bodied, yeasty fruity flavours dominate, grainy hints, shy hoppy finish. Nice and refreshing beer.
