The fine art of pouring Erdinger Weissbier
If you keep your Erdinger in the fridge, make sure that the bottle
is stored in a vertical position - preferably at a temperature of
8°C.
If the bottle is laid flat, the yeast can slide down when the bottle
is opened, causing a sudden release of carbon dioxide and too much froth
when pouring out the beer. And that can ruin your whole wheat beer enjoyment!
Once the beer's chilled correctly, here's the classic method of pouring
Erdinger into the appropriate wheat beer glass:
|
Step 1:
First rinse the glass well in cold water. By the way: never put wheat
beer glasses into the dishwasher - traces of aggressive detergent on
the glass will make even the frothiest head collapse.
|
|
Step 2:
Hold the glass at a slight angle and pour the beer in slowly along
the side of the glass. Don't empty the bottle though - leave about a
finger's width at the bottom.
|
|
Step 3:
The yeast is still missing - together with the other ingredients,
the yeast is essential to give the beer its true flavor.
|
|
Step 4:
Swirl the bottle gently in order to agitate the yeast. Then pour the
remaining beer into the glass.
|
|
Step 5:
The yeast is now evenly distributed throughout the glass and helps
form the perfect frothy head - now comes the moment of complete Erdinger
wheat beer enjoyment!
