Hanz, Booby, Baby, I'm your white knight!

Schneider Weisse. Ladies and Gents here is a true Hefeweizen. I say that because when you see this beer, it doesn't look like your typical American Hefeweizen. It pours a cloudy brown with a big boisterous head. Scents of banana and mild clove. Flavors are very complex for a hefe, and one could argue that this is really a dunkel disguised as a hefe. It's incredibly smooth and very easy to drink. Easily one of the three of four best hefeweizen's in the world. At 5.4% ABV this is a mild one and with all that flavor, it would be easy to down a couple. This offering comes to us from G. Schneider & Sohn......a Bavarian brewery company founded in 1872.
