Karg Helles Hefe-Weißbier
Unfiltriert mit ihrer obergärigen Hefe und all ihren Eiweißstoffen kommt das Jungbier zu einer echten Nachgärung in die Flasche. Und wie die neuesten wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen zeigen, wird so das Optimale an Weißbieraroma erreicht.

(bel orange, nez-bouche banane, ample et light, hefe-saveur, pas assez de caractère, mais quel style, hein)
Bottle 0,5ltr: Opaque/hazy like dark orange/yellow colored brew with an dry taste with faint hints of sweet banana.
Mit seiner hellbraunen Farbe und der überdurchschnittlich starken Hefetrübung sieht es aus wie Karamellpudding im Weißbierglas. Die Schaumkrone ist feinporig und entsprechend stabil. Es riecht vordergründig hefig, süß und dezent nach Banane und Nelke. Der Antrank ist weich und die Kohlensäure angenehm feinperlig und zurückhaltend. Obwohl der Körper aufgrund der massiven Hefe nicht als schlank bezeichnet werden kann, ist das Bier latent wässrig. Die Hefe ist dominant ohne spektakuläre Aromen zu generieren. Die zunächst präsente Süße wird Richtung Abgang vom Bitterhopfen gebremst.
Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is estery yeast with banana, wheat, clove, citrus, orange, and some welcome hoppy notes. Flavour is sweetish with a light bitterness. Body is medium. On the hoppy / citrussy side of Hefeweizen, nice one!
donker gouden met witte kraag, aroma van tarwe, mout en graan, smaken zijn erg dun en waterig, zeer zeer licht, mout, graan, zwakke/lichte body, ok co2, mij wat te licht
Dimmig, gul, stort gulaktig skum. Doft: Vete, jäst, växthus, rengöringsmedel. Smak: Jäst, lager, smuts, rengöringsmedel, gräs.
Quite hazy dark golden color with off-white head. Aroma has overripe banana and toasted malt. Taste is sweet and fruity, slightly astringent, grainy. Medium plus body and carbonation. Good weizen overall.
Bottle @ home. Hazy yellow color, full sized fluffy dense and lightly creamy white head. Smell and taste wheat, lightly sweet and I also get a distant hint of smoke. Nice soft yet full mouthfeel. Quite pleasant.
Bread and malt dominate the aroma. Thick head. Banana undertones round out the palate. Taste is good with some bitterness on the back of the tongue. Helles influence is strong.
0.5l bottle from getränke oase in münchen. pours a cloudy orange with a big frothy head. aroma of banana, cloves, apricot. flavour mostly of lingonberry/preiselbeere, with a slightly metallic mouthfeel. not bad.
Bottled. Super hazy golden orange color, typical haziness for a weißbier. Medium aroma of bananas, cloves, bread. Taste mirrors the aroma. Fruitiness in the finish. Medium to high carbonation. Medium body, taste a bit watery. Overall not bad, but Germans can do a lot better like the Weihenstephaner Hefeweißbier or Schneider Weiße.
Pours from the bottle a rich amber colour. Medium carbonation with heavy clove / spicy aroma. This slightly dominates the banana aroma. Nice on the palate and very smooth. Aftertaste is long lasting spicy clove with not much sweetness. Overall a good weissbier.
500 ml bottle. Dirty cloudy orange colour, big long lasting white head. Banana, a bit grapefruit, yeasty, bready, estery. Taste is bitter and slightly sour. Soft carbonated, medium bodied. Bitter finish. Palatable and refreshing. Very nice!
Keg at The Great British Beer Festival 2017, Kensington Olympia. Cloudy orange, with a thin white head. Nice yeasty aroma. Flavour is a little lacking and the beer is a tad thin.
Bottle at Beerdock Leek. Pours a cloudy pale amber colour with a medium white head. Aroma of wheat, banana, cream, slight caramel, a little biscuit, a hint of vanilla and subtle herbs. Taste of wheat, grain, some biscuit, slight banana, a little cream, a hint of fruit, a touch of caramel and subtle herbs. Medium bodied and moderate carbonation. A dryish, biscuity, banana bitterness in the finish. This beer surprised me, expecting a plain and simple weissbier but this is rich, creamy and biscuity. Very good.
Bottle. Murky orange color with white head. Aroma is cheesecake, banana cream, fresh yeast, sweet, vanilla. Taste is lots of banana cream, vanille, sweet. Medium carbonation. Oberbayern, wie es leibt und lebt - the pure Upper Bavaria feeling.
Too light for a hefeweizen, and has a boring, sourish taste. The head is nice though.
Bottle shared thanks to Deanso. Murky golden brown with a small off white head. Aroma of yeast, banana, wheat, light malt and caramel. Flavour is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter. Light to medium bodied with soft carbonation. [03-09-2016]
50cl bottle shared with Kermis.
Thin white head. Murky amber pour. Very average
Smooth mild yeasty beginning. Hints of banana and clove, fresh and smooth, very soft and round. The yeast is not too fruity, lots of clove, not too sweetish. Round and great!
Some of the yeast stayed in the bottle, so I am not sure whether I poured it correctly. Anyways this is good! Hazy, between amber and brown, cloudy white head. Mainly apricot, hay, toast. Light body and thin carbonation, a little watery which is the only real weakness. Still decent and recommendable.
Bottle Germay. Aroma with some bready/crackery yeast but mostly huge orange peel and light bubblegum. Orange body with a fizzy off-white head. Light but crisp body brings out more of a yeasty overtone with light bitterness.
Bronze, brown, cloudy, lot of carbon. Nice white head. Apricot, metal, caramel in the aroma. Malt, caramel, with metallic aftertaste a bit watery.
