Hopf Helle Weisse (Weissbierbrauerei Hopf)



I can't think of a more gorgeous beer than a Weissbier, especially one like this with a hazy orange body and two finger head that dissipates fairly fast with minimal lacing. The Hopf Helle Weisse smells of banana and citrus but not much else. It has a surprisingly dry taste with bready flavor. As the beer strikes the tongue, the hops strike  for a minorly bitter beginning while the banana flavor takes a backseat as an underlying tone. A very fizzy beer that has a crispy mouth feel. It's highly drinkable and would definitely recommend this one for almost any occasion, although it would probably be served best as an epic apres-ski beer.

Final Grade - 9/10
