"Germans drink less beer every year, so breweries founded in the 14th
century are searching for ways to compete in the 21st. The answer,
increasingly, is to look to an uncomfortable place for German brewers who
pride themselves as being the best in the world: America, which in Germany
has a reputation for making beers that taste like water.
"'If you look through the economy, what Germans are good at is taking
established ideas and making them a lot better,' said John Kornblum, a
former American ambassador to Germany who still lives in Berlin. * * * But,
he said, there are 'outer limits of inventiveness. . . . They’
re never going to produce a Steve Jobs, but they will produce lots of people
who make really high-quality stuff.'
"In America, 'there is more beer diversity on the shelf than you will find
in Munich or Prague or various other classic brewing centers,' said Julie
Johnson, contributing editor at All About Beer magazine. * * * In recent
years, American brewers have tried making ever-more-unusual beers. Dogfish
Head, near Rehoboth Beach, has tried replicating fermented drinks from
ancient China and Egypt.

(a) Weissbier
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weissbier
(a Bavarian specialty beer in which a significant proportion of malted
barley is replaced with malted wheat)
, or
(b) wheat beer
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheat_beer
(section 1.2 Witbier: brewed mainly in Belgium and the Netherlands. It gets
its name due to suspended yeast and wheat proteins which cause the beer to
look hazy, or white, when cold)
Note:
(a) The German words "weiss" and "bier" are "white" and "beer" in English.
(b) The Dutch "wit" and "bier" are "white" and "beer" in English.
(c) Belgium

(Belgium is home to two main linguistic groups, the Dutch-speakers and the
French-speakers)

第一种去慕尼黑的时候喝过，但是是两年之前了，没啥印象了都。

发帖数: 2067 | 5 我觉得这俩应该是同一种哈。
巴伐州的白啤酒牌子，配方里也是用的小麦。而且外观和口味跟北部的没啥区别。 | c**i
发帖数: 6973 | 6 Well, I wondered, when I was replying to you, if the two (weissbier and
witbier) tasted similar. However, despite living in New England (a region in
US cloesest to Europe), I have never been to the Old World (so I do not know
what weissbier tastes like). I did try Blue Moon Belgian White (by Molson
Coors)

, and noticed it was different from other beers.
