Beer Review: Fortuna Hefeweizen

So my delivery from Beers Of Europe was finally in my possession on Friday. 12 new beers, wheat beers to be exact, to try out. Yassssss!!!!!


The first one i've tried is the Fortuna Hefeweizen. This is brewed by Hasen Brau of Augsburg and is a Hefeweizen style beer, so a yeasty wheat beer. Its got a rather charming old style label depicting a lady carrying a large glass of beer. The appearance of the beer is misty rather than cloudy.



Its got a rather banana-y aroma and doesn't leave much a trail on the glass as it goes down. The flavour is a little citrusy and refreshing but not particularly strong, which could be dangerous as it means you could easily down a lot of it without noticing. Its also disappointing as it doesn't leave much of an impact on the taste buds. Its a shame as it was very promising on first taste.


Overall its a nice enough beer and pleasant but with no presence and for that reason, it will only score an average

5/10
