The latest brew from Jacobsen, the house brewery of Carlsberg. I've touched on this before but they do make some pretty decent beer every now and again along with some horrible shit as does any brewery. Their Forårsbryg (Eng : spring brew) and Golden Naked Christmas Ale hits the spot with me as does their Extra, a pilsener, yep Carlsberg does make a decent pilsener...you read that right and I have a straight face on when typing it ! If anything, at the end of sampling their new brews I do love their silo shaped bottles which make excellent candle holders.
Big waft of ripe bananas, yeast, cloves and citrus on the pour.
Weissbier pours cloudy orange gold with a big white head. The intake tastes as the aromas on the pour although more subtle and with a bit more cloves and spice. Quite a sweet fruity finish with cloves and yeast lingering in the aftertaste. No problems with the mouthfeel though it is a bit oily with pretty low carbonation.
This has about everything you expect from a german hefeweizen so no complaints here on that front. No wow factor and no gripes either, it is what it says on the bottle. I would not have a problem buying this again, preferably on offer, or drinking another.
This scored a respectable 4/10 on the 'somebody turn the fan up, it is roasting in here' Beerometer.
Alc : 5.9%
Where to buy CPH : Bought on offer in Netto though most larger supermarkets have it.
