TODAY: GERMANY V. AUSTRALIA

One of my favorite breweries in Germany is in Michael Ballack’s hometown of Gorlitz on the German/Polish border. Landskron is famous for their hefeweizen which will be perfect for a light and frothy game between the efficient Germans and the underdogs from down under.

Landskron

This is one of my favorite breweries in Europe. They have an awesome hefeweizen but their beers aren’t super distributed even in Germany. One day, I hope they will make it here. Even a little would be welcome.

new from Sierra Nevada

Sierra Nevada Kellerweis Hefeweizen

The great Imbibe magazine/website alerted me to this new beer set to arrive in June. When I get my hands on some, I will give you a review. Sierra Nevada is branching out into newer beers. First there was the Torpedo IPA now a hefe. I wonder if this will be in the banana/clove style or the Widmer wheat style.
