Back in July I posted that I was going to review some of the schneider series. Well, I finally got around to typing this one up, the Tap7 Original Weizen.
This wheat beer has a deep and slightly turbid reddish brown colour. The head is very solid, and it hangs around for quite some time. A classic weizen, as far as appearances go. As per usual, here is my photographical representation.
The nose is yeasty like sweet bread and there is a small amount of a vegetable aroma, reminiscent of a small fruit and veg shop.
The flavour is springy, well hopped, with a tart/ sour element. It leans ever so slightly in the direction of a lembic beer. After this zesty start there is some sweetenss, and then tropical fruit. Then, right at the end it goes on to matching the aroma from the nose, a yeasty sweet bread. This one could almost pass for a winter beer in that respect.
I was quite content with this flavoursome, if not oustanding beer.
