I buy Magnotta WW any time I see it ( it has poor distribution) in the bottles for home consumption.

For those of us who like hefeweizens but do not want to drive over 150 miles round trip to consume it at on tap at a GTA bar, bottled weiss is an only option.

Frankly, the Magnotta weiss is less pronounced in clove, banana and bubble gum phenols than the German weiss on the shelves or Denison's on tap, but it is at least fresh by comparison with most lots of the bottled German Weiss on LCBO shelves is near the end of their best shelf life AND have been pasturized for export.

I'm not sure if Magnotta pasturizes their bottled WW but it always tastes reletively fresh.
Aventinus rules!

Well thanks to all your positive feedback about the WW, I had a tap put in on our main bar and it is absolutely delicious. Thanks alot. Man oh man with all these great Ontario Craft Beers on tap I was forced this year to vote for the Academy for best Draught beer selection.
