Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier

Name: Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier
Brewery: Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan
Origin: Freising, Germany
Style: Hefe Weizen
Alcohol: 5.40 % ABV
Rating: 4.5/5.0

This hefe weizen (German translations: hefe=yeast, weizen=wheat, weiss=white) style brew is among the best in the world. Brewed at the Älteste Brauerei Der Welt, or oldest brewery in the world, I first sampled this beer during a trip to Munich. Its famous for its opaque golden color, banana & clove taste, and spicy finish. Although a horrible selection for beer pong use, its a perfect match for hearty meals or afternoons watching the game when you crave a quality brew to savor.
