Beer Review: Franziskaner Dark Wheat… Like Imaginary Sex with Halle Berry
You will never have sex with Halle Berry… and neither will I. You will only have a roughly vague day-dream of an idea of what it might possibly be like. Only it’ll be the same foggy day-dream of winning the lottery or possibly the World Series. You will be sitting next to Derek Jeter as his carriage moves through the Canyon of Heroes… and inexplicably a unicorn will walk by.
If you happen to be a woman… and you are reading this… that means you saw the title and were immediately intrigued. And that’s awesome… but my point will be lost on you.
Anyways… back to Halle… that’s kind of what the Franziskaner Dark Wheat (German translation: Hefe-Weissbier Dunkel) tastes like. It’s a couple shades darker than a typical wheat… and I’m not sure if it was the light or the relaxing nature of the afternoon… but it was terrifically smooth. It looked amazing… and tasted just as good.
Much as I imagine an evening with Halle would be like. Comforting… relaxing… and everything you would expect it to be. Except, as I have mentioned above in great detail, that will never happen. Also, I was waiting for a hint of spice… but I forgot that it’s German… and they don’t believe in spice.
If you happen to be at For Pete’s Sake in the next month or so (not sure how long they’ll have it on tap)… stop in and have a pint.
