Draft at Ballydoyle, as “König Ludwig Royal Bavarian Hefe Weiss” In branded straighter-than-normal hefeweizen glass. Cloudy yellow, a quarter-inch white head that didn’t touch the lemon wedge stuck in the glass. Still started with a bit of Lemon Pledge smell, but this dwindled to a gentle base wheat smell. Taste is soft and just a little spicy. Usual hefe esters are not as strong, just a bit of clove, and no banana bomb, working well with the wheat and malt. Just a basic, average hefeweizen.

Bottle: Poured a dirty beige color weizen with a huge foamy pure white head with good retention and some minimal lacing. Aroma of banana and cloves is too subtle for style. Taste is a mix between some medium wheat malt with traces of banana and cloves esters. Something resembling smoke is also noticeable but out of place within the style. Full body with limited filtration with some good carbonation. Not as clean and ester are a bit off but still enjoyable.
