Aventinus from Private Weissbierbrauerei G. Schneider & Sohn GmbH
Rating: A-
Split a bottle of this one with my dad last night.
Appearance: Nice head, tawny in color with purple highlights. Little in the way of lacing, however.
Smell: Smells like a maltier, darker hefeweizen. Bubblegum aromas in particular stood out, along with caramel malt and a bit of tanginess.
Taste: Lots of weizen-like phenolics, but enough malt character to keep them in check. Hops balance, but don't play much of a flavor role themselves. Alcohol is obviously higher than average.
Mouthfeel: Body is rather thick, along with the bubble gum flavors makes it seem a bit medicinal.
Drinkability: Good, but not exceptional.
Serving type: bottle
