About
Almost a thousand years ago the Bavarian State Brewery Weihenstephan was the monastery brewery of the Benedictine monks. Then, the Royal Bavarian State Brewery, it is now operating as a state directed enterprise under the control of the Bavarian Government. As the oldest still existing brewery in the world it stands upon the Weihenstephan hill, surrounded by the comparatively very young Weihenstephan science center of the Technical University of Munich. And so, a unique tradition and brewing culture developed over the centuries.

Today, Korbinian’s heirs use the most modern technology, but they never forget their own history and their own high standards. This allowes us to brew a variety of beers of the highest possible quality.

Poured a pleasant gold with substantial head. Aroma is hops and piney citrus. Taste is similar. Actually taste is reminiscent of a slightly stronger Saison DuPont. Good but not earth shattering given the hype and the price point.

Poured from the bottle with a cloudy hazy darkish golden with a substantial head. Aroma is not overpowering with some fruits, taste is bananaish with some sweetness and caramel, not as overpowering as some weizbocks. Incredibly and dangerously drinkable.

Bottled. I had never ad a kristallweizen until I had one of these - it was perfect. And by perfect I mean perfect. Poured a perfect gold, tasted the same, and etc. Great beer.

Bottle, pale yellow w/largish head. For some reason not as good as i had remembered it. Slightly skunky so maybe it was the bottle.

Draft. one of my favorite weisses of all time. dark cloudy yellow w/ serious head. Fantastic fruity aroma, not to acidic but enough to have some bite. A perfectly balanced weiss beer.

At home, personally, I was a bit disappointed about this beer, not well balanced, too sweet, malty, touch of honey, a lot of sugar. 10.03.2019, buying it to take away, at the Pibar, Lausanne.
