Paulaner Hefe-Weizen


Paulaner is one of the big 6 Munich Breweries(though now actualy they are partnered with another.. Hacker-Pshorr) Anyway Ive been a fan of Paulaner for a while, the hostel I stayed at in Munich last year had it on tap. I remember their Hefe-Weisse to be similar to Hacker-Pshorr, Hof Brau, and Franziskaner... which means its very good.

first impressions: hints of banana.. smells perfectly like a weisse. Nice orange cloudy color

taste: slight bite at first then smooth wheat taste, ending nice and crisp with no after taste

overall: great This is a great beer, no doubt about it. I do remember it having more of a bite then previous times Ive had it, which is my only problem with it. That may have been on tap though. Its smooth, refreshing, tastes great and goes down easy. This is definitely one of the top weisse's around. Some day I'll have a comparison where I test my favorites all at once.. I may need a few more people to help me finish the beers though ;)
