In May 2007, Garrett Oliver traveled to the 400 yr-old Schneider brewery in Kelheim, Germany, to brew Schneider-Brooklyner Hopfen-Weisse. This was dry-hopped with the local Hallertauer Saphir hop variety. In July, Drexler brought his yeast to Brooklyn and brewed Brooklyner-Schneider Hopfen-Weisse, choosing the American Amarillo and Palisade varieties for the dry-hopping. Now you can taste the result, the latest beer in our Brewmaster’s Reserve series. The beer has a full orange color and the aromatics pair the banana and clove notes from the Schneider yeast with the mango and citrus qualities of the hops. The bitterness is robust but balanced, and the beer has a clean, hoppy finish.
Brooklyner-Schneider Hopfen-Weisse pairs well with Caribbean seafood preparations, crab cakes, jerk chicken, Thai cuisine, Szechuan cooking and many Mexican dishes.”

Bottle. Hazy golden colour, big white head. Smells sour apple, citrus hops and peppery spices. The taste is yeasty and wheaty at first (with a small sourness), american hops adds some bitterness and vanilla rounds it off. Not super complex, although super good!

Bottle as shown. Pours a cloudy golden with a large creamy white head that lasts awhile leaving behind good sticky lacing along the glass. The aroma is a banana yeast with citrus and honey. Thin mouthfeel with a sweet malt taste with yeast, banana and a nice crisp finish. Hides the alcohol making it easy to drink, very refreshing, a very impressive Weizen-Bock from Brooklyn.

Big American hop aroma, with tons of citrus working with the bananas and cloves of the yeast. Smooth wheat flavor, and the hops work well with it. Super smooth body (it was a year old), with a perfect mouth feel. Big fruit flavor: melon, banana, cherry, pear. Very complex and supremely original, even if I liked the German-made one better.
