Ayinger Ur-Weisse

IMPORT BREWS

Ayinger "Ur-Weisse"
___________________________

German Dunkelweizen - Germany
$3.50/16 oz.
5.8% ABV

Dunkel, or “dark,” is a reference to both a beer’s color and the color of the malts used to make them. A specialty of the Bavarian region, Dunkel Weizen combines pale wheat malt with darker barley malt for color and flavor.  Ayinger’s Ur-Weisse exemplifies the style’s platonic ideal—smooth, rich and complex, without being the least bit heavy.  Cloudy with bready-tasting yeast sediment, the beer showcases a brilliant russet-gold hue under a fluffy white head. Lush fruity flavors result from a unique strain of ale yeast, marking the beer with aromas of caramelized bananas, plums and cloves.
