Episode 147 – King Ludwig Comes To Visit

Posted By John on July 3rd, 2009

We tried a beer new to our market the Konig Ludwig Hefe-Weizen from Kaltenberg. Imported from Germany it is a solid wheat beer, but does it have the three flavors of a hefeweizen?

Week three of the hops challenge concluded. Both test subjects said it was a little improves this week. Enjoyment still not a word they would use for the experiment.

Kaltenberg – Konig Ludwig Hefe-Weizen

Posted By John on July 3rd, 2009

Beer: Konig Ludwig Hefe-Weizen (We think they threw the hypehn in for fun)

Brewery: Kaltenberg (Site is in German)

Reviewed: 29-Jun-09 on Episode 147

Appearance: Golden with a white linger head.

Aroma: Banana and clove are both evident in the aroma.

Taste: Banana and clove come through with a very slight bubblegum flavor under them.

Mouthfeel: Light body with an effervescent feel.

Aftertaste: Not much beyond a slight lingering sweetness.

Overall: Decent beer. Good summer beer and a better option than a shandy.

Best enjoyed at: any hot and humid outdoor event.
