Brewer's Advent Day #16: Hohenthanner Blau Weisse

Another Bavarian brewery with a long brewing tradition. It is over 150 years old and continuously owned by the Rauchenecker family. The village of Hohenthann is located near the hop gardens of the Hallertau. The brewmaster knows the hop farmers personally, visits the fields again and again during the summer to see if the "green gold," as he affectionately calls the hops, is growing and thriving.

For his wheat Ale called "Blau Weiss" (blue white), Johannes Rauchenecker chose the two flavorhops Hallertau Cascade and Hüll Melon. They conjure up citrusy impressions with hints of honeydew melon into the glass. Classic Bavarian brewing art with a modern twist.

Cheers!

I love wheat beers, but their dry hopping took it to a higher level. Great beer!

Loved this wheat beer from start to finish! It has it all, smell, color, and taste. Was sad drinking the last sip, because I would love to have another!! Great show - always learning so much.

Good Weissbier. Nice, lacy foam head. Cloudy and hazy color. Citrusy and banana flavors on the finish. Makes me long for summer on a deck or beer garden with friends and family.

A very smooth and tasty wheat beer, most enjoyable 👍 I was expecting it to leave an aftertaste, but it left a pleasant flavor instead.

I don’t drink wheat beers and I don’t care for citrusy tasting beer’s but the beer was pleasing. Definitely one of the best wheat’s I’ve ever had. I have to say, this is the 3rd year I’ve had the beer advent calendar and have enjoyed them all. I definitely am and have been a fan of German beers for more than 30 years! Keep em coming!
