Go and- no wait! Run and get yourself a bottle of this nectar. This is suddenly my favorite beer. Aggressive citrus hop character and florally perfumed.

I bought 2 of them last week in Austin TX, drank one last night and was very disappointed.  I really hoped for something different, it's hard to explain what I didn't like about it.  I love German beer, I'm starting to enjoy hoppier beers but this one seemed to have characteristics of neither.  I'l try the second one in a week or so just in case my taste buds were on strike that day.

When this came out a couple years ago, it quickly became my "new favorite beer."  There's a version from the German brewery that uses noble hops and one from N.Y. that uses American hops.  I like the U.S. version better.

I like them both. When I saw the post I was wondering if the beers continued to be brewed and released or if it was a one and done kinda thing.

I think it has become a regular thing.  I recently saw the German version in the store.

I guess I have the German version. Utterly enjoying one right now. I'm getting passion-fruit. At 8.2% the alcohol is barely noticeable. This could be some exotic fruit drink.

The Brooklyn version is in a 750ml bottle and IIRC the German version is in a 500ml

I've had them both side by side and thought the Schnieder (German) version was better.
