Weihenstephaner Original: Beer Review

5.1% abv
1pt .9oz bottle
$3.60 a bottle
Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan
Freising, Germany

I do enjoy the Weihenstephaner line-up of beers. I still remember my first one it was back in the 1980’s at the Box Bar in Plymouth, Michigan.

The appearance is a light golden yellow with a light biscuit aroma. The taste is biscuit, yeast, grains, and little hops to boot. As the beer warms for the second half of the glass there is a little more hops happing. Just a light citrus on the back of the palate with a little pink peppercorn mingled in for interest. The texture is crisp and medium-light in body.
