176 Ayinger Ur-Weisse Germany Dunkel Weizen 4.1

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 8

pours orange-ish amber color with thousands of bubbles streaming up from the bottom with a small tan colored head. The aroma has your classic wheat smell, very clovey and spicy banana. The taste is very malty with a little tartness. A touch more grapefruit and hops on the front of the mouth, with a biscuit/bready finish. The mouthfeel is drier than expected but overall is very refreshing.

177 Schneider Weisse Tap 6: Aventinus Weizen Doppelbock Germany Weizenbock 4.4

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

Pours a dark murky brown, with a medium sized off-white head, that disipates rather quickly, but leaves some nice lacing. The aroma is of dark fruits; plums, raisins, figs. A nice healthy dose of a biscuity malt character follows the fruits. The taste is similar to the aroma, with the dark fruit flavors coming though staring at the beginning, with the sweet bready malts coming in to round things out a bit at the end. The mouthfeel is rich and thick, though it still has a nice crisp, clean finish, that keeps you wanting more. A lot more!!!!!!!!!!!!!

179 Ayinger Maibock Germany Bock 4.0

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

pours a burnt glden color with a small white head and left a little fancy lacing. The aroma was a muted caramel apple and sweet cooked brown sugar. The taste was a lovely mix of carmel and munich style malts, slight touch of noble hops and at the end, distinctly pleasant alcohol flavor. This is a classic, complex and rich beer. Mouthfeel is right on balance and is rich, creamy, full bodied. Very very enjoyable beer.

182 St. Pauli NA Germany Reduced Alcohol 2.0

Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 4

pours a crystal clear light yellow in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation.

The aroma is a little skunky and cooked corn. The taste is similar to the aroma but also has some hints of bready malts akin to a pilsner. No bitterness is perceptible. The mouthfeel is light-bodied—but not watery—on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.

188 Erdinger Weissbier (Mit Feiner Hefe) Germany Hefeweizen 3.6

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 7

pours a cloudy blonde colour with ample carbonation and a medium sized head but it didn't manage to retain any lace. The aroma has a lot of grain smell upfront with a banana backing and maybe the barest hint of cloves. Warming really helped it out as the banana came forward a bit more. The taste starts with the banana sweetness with a bit of malt at which point dry wheat takes over with a small hint of cloves. The mouthfeel has the carbonation in the body is very well done. The aftertaste is also nice and balanced. Longer lasting head and removing the odd touch of dryness would be nice.
