Andechser Weissbier Hell

What the brewers say

“Embodies a slice of the Andechs lifestyle: finely yeasty, tangy, and sparkling. It refreshes and renews the thirst for more.”

What our panel thought

“Initial aroma reminiscent of onion or cat, mineral notes. Once that off-gases, there is a nice mix of fruit esters and clove phenols. Flavor is tart wheat, slight citrus notes, and medium banana. This is a solid interpretation of the hefeweizen style, very drinkable and classic.”

What our editors thought

“Shoe leather and light citrus on the nose. A bright and bready body like an orange breakfast pastry.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Wektenburger Kloster Hefeweisbier

“This beer pours beautifully with a billowing white head and a hazy straw color. The aroma is light on fruity esters and clove, while showing woody and herbal hops aroma. Tart wheat flavor in the initial sip, with subtle hefe character. A sweet, filling beer.”

Ayinger Brauweisse

“Pours hazy yellow with a big white head of dense foam. The aroma has strong fruit esters and spice with a background of wheat malt and a bit of dank hops aroma. Strongly fruity with a surprising citrus tartness.”

KC Bier Co. Hefeweizen

“Aroma has the expected hefe notes with an unexpected element of tobacco. Fruity esters are assertive, with a tart citrus and wheat background. High carbonation keeps it refreshing, with a lingering sweetness.”
