Erdinger Weisbier
There is nothing better than having a nice cold beer to cool off during these hot summer nights. For the past couple of months I’ve made an effort to try different beers rather than sticking to the usual suspects.
This week I came across a really good beer from Germany named “Erdinger Weisbier”. I was prompted to pick this beer up because it has similar characteristics to some of my other favorites like Hoegaarden and Rickards White.
Appearance: Like other wheat beers, it is very cloudy and when poured into a glass, has a very hefty head.
Taste: This beer doesn’t have the same orange/fruity notes as Hoegaarden but still comes through with a soft fruitiness. It is similar to Hoegaarden in that it finishes with a bit of a clove flavour.
Smell: It has a soft fruit aroma. Found it to be not as pleasantly aromatic as Hoegaarden.
Overall, it is a very drinkable beer that goes down fairly smooth. Not to mention it tastes good. If you like wheat beers, you’ll enjoy the unique approach it takes but might just be a beer you’d have only once and a while.
Enjoy
