Schneider's Original is one of the beers that just doesn;t fit comfortably.The New Albanianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10757531658514051905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10691910.post-7456032690680981042011-01-03T15:05:51.223-05:002011-01-03T15:05:51.223-05:001) I discovered that the last time I tried to orde...1) I discovered that the last time I tried to order it. I was hoping it was just out.<br /><br />Is it not a consistent supply? Because I consider both Weihenstephaners to pretty much define their style. Not that Franziskaner is bad or anything.<br /><br />2) Huh, yeah they do. Beer advocate has it at as a hefe, which I had open when I saw your post so just checked there. Judge at the KY state fair last year said my hefe reminded her of Schneider Weisse, now I wonder if that was an out of style comment. I considered it a positive at the time.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07290967499580060041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10691910.post-9707908140227496242011-01-03T14:16:48.165-05:002011-01-03T14:16:48.165-05:00(1) We've not been carrying Weihenstephaner Du...(1) We've not been carrying Weihenstephaner Dunkel, anyway.<br /><br />(2) The BJCP itself classifies Schneider as Dunkel.
