Brewer's Advent Day 2: Kuchlbauer Turmweisse Hell

The playful, ornate, colorful tower of the Kuchlbauer brewery in Bavaria is visible from afar. Connoisseurs can see immediately that Friedensreich Hundertwasser was at work here. Round shapes, dancing windows, uneven floors and onion domes are typical elements of his work. Michael Salleck has been running the Kuchlbauer brewery for nine generations. A real family business. Only wheat beer is brewed, no bottom-fermented lagers. So, wheat beer is what we have in the glass today, the Turmweisse (translated: tower wheat beer). The Hundertwasser tower is depicted on the label. It’s un amber-colored wheat beer. Fresh fruity aromas of apricot and tangerine develop a pleasant aromatic scent in combination with the cereal notes. Cheers!

Really great tasting wheat beer. Fruity and smooth which is different than a typical Bravarian hefeweizen, not as bright and fresh. I'm liking it's different, not-so-wheat flavor.

Lovely amber colour. Fruity and malty. Can is probably not quite as fresh as I might like it, but German Weisen really doesn't taste the same outside Germany.
