Beer Flight
Schneider-Weisse – Kelheim, Germany
Cost: $10
5oz. pour of each
Edle-Weisse
In the US Georg
Schneider's Weissen Edel-Weisse is overlooked when shadowed by the Original
Hefe-Weizen and Aventinus. It is a gold colored Hefe-Weizen that pours with the
immaculate trademark Schneider head that is always consistently beaded,
plentiful, and long lasting. The scents emit a slightly bitter citrus and pine
smell with an underlying yeastiness. 6.2% ABV
Hopfen-Weisse
This is collaboration
between the Schneider Brewery and the Brooklyn Brewery of New York. This brew
is made in more of the traditional style of Bavarian beer making with just a
touch of American hops. 8.2% ABV
Adventinus
This is a very
respected German dopplebock that pours a cloudy darkish chestnut brown color,
with a white head that seems to grade from coarse bubbles at the bottom to fine
bubbles at the top - it also lasts very well. The nose consists of sweetish
spicy notes - cinnamon, cloves, banana and vanilla - underlain by a sort of
leathery mustiness and a touch of chocolate. 8.0%ABV
