Another beer from Erdinger Weissbrau, and this one is slightly better than the last. It is a little bit closer to what I would usually expect from a wheat beer. It is a good color, and is bottle fermented, so there will be some particulate in the bottom of the bottle, but by pouring it correctly this only adds more flavor to the beer.1. Pour 2/3 into a glass.
2. Swirl what is left in the bottle to help mix the particulate into the liquid.
3. Pour the rest of the bottle into glass.
4. Enjoy!
The beer is smooth, with a distinct grain taste. It is called Snow-white, and is Erdinger's winter seasonal and is built exactly for the season. It has a thick mouth-feel, and is a little heavy in the stomach but will definitely keep you warm after one or two. I don't particularly enjoy it, but there was nothing to complain about either. It's a difficult beer to rate as it is very similar to many other wheat and winter seasonal beers I've tasted. Many wheat beers have hints of citrus or fruit added to them, but this one does not have that (and it really wouldn't make sense to have citrus popping up in the winter would it?) and is therefore a little less complex than you may be hoping for. Still a pretty decent beer to enjoy on a winter evening.
Rating: 72/100
