It’s a pretty standard wheat beer. Pours amber yellow. Aroma and taste of orange peel and barley. Rated 4/5/10

Draught at the Schweitzerhaus in Vienna. Rich, but not overly heavy. A rather sweet malt taste in this one. It was very nice here on tap. Could have used a bit more hops, possibly, but one of the most enjoyable dunkels I have had to date. Well balanced and tasty.

Pour is fizzy and moderately hazy - hardly any head - the nose has a kind of syrupy sweetness to with some odd notes of raisin and treacle that are quite strange for the style - a bit of buttery character as well - not necessarily bad, just very out of place, and thus, a little off-putting - the flavor lacks the expected yeast profile for the style - in fact, it hardly tastes like a hefe at all - moderate honey sweetness, quite a bit of overripe apple, light notes of green raisins - a moderate acidic tang through the middle and the finish - a mild hop bitterness at the end - fairly clean and tasty, actually, I just wouldn’t call it a hefe.

500 ml bottle purchased at Esquin Wine Merchant in Seattle, Washington. PRODUCTION NUMBER 020900 L18 stamped on the label. Pour is a cloudy white, yellow golden with a one inch white head that falls immediately. Aroma originally is skunky on opening, though that clears quickly. Behind the skunk is grainy wheat, and a bit of a moldy vegetable odor. Neither is real strong, so it is not overly unpleasant, but still does not smell quite right. The taste is (thankfully) more on target for a hefe, starting with the grainy wheat, moving towards some clove, banana and citrus rind yeast and closing with a nice amount of mineral earthiness. As with the nose, its unclean, but not overly so to be unpleasant. Palate is medium bodied, mouth coating with active carbonation. The aftertaste is the mineral. Overall a below average Hefeweizen.

Bottle. Medium gold color, good head of foam. Aroma of hops with malt. Bitter, hop centered flavor, with ok malt balance, but definitely on the hoppy side. Decent bitter finish as well. Relatively light body and high carbonation. Pretty good, but a step down from the best in Austria.

Initial weak aroma of banana upon opening the bottle turns to clove then lemon and wheat with raisins also present. Opaque golden color with floaties that resemble sea monkeys, no head. Watery mouthfeel and lemony wheat flavor. Slightly too much carbonation. Finishes with rotting citrus. Perhaps this beer doesn’t move fast enough and I got an old sample, but this left much to be desired.
