Commercial Description:
Berghoff Hefe Weizen is a smooth tasting, unfiltered Wheat Beer brewed in traditional Bavarian style, using both Two-Row Barley and Wheat Malt. The cloudy appearance of the Hefe-Weizen is caused by the Vitamin B-Complex carrying top fermented yeast in the finished product.

My favorite Wheat beer is draft Erdinger, however this is difficult to get (in kegs) in the US. When it is found, it is nearly $150 per half barrel. This berghoff beer, rivals Erdinger in all cases, except price (only $70/half barrel). It is slightly cloudy in appearence, mild in flavor, and has a pleasing finish. The bottles are quite close to the draft (draft also available from Berghoff’s restaurant on Adam’s St. in Chicago).

Very nice hefe. The flavor is crisp (i notice the water quality of Berghoff’s as unusualy fresh) the colors right and flavor pretty authentic. I don’t know if I can say it is the best hefeweizen I ever had but it is very highly recomended.

On of my favor wheat beer out there. Solid finish without the sour notes. Can drink with a lemon or without. Very refreshing on a good hot day.

A great weissbier. I don’t know about it when bottled, but on tap at Berghoff’s Chicago restaurant, this is archetypal Hefe-Weizen: nice clove nose, fruity, slightly sweet, well-balanced body, with a cloudy appearance, and full, robust head.

In America, not many brewers make a better Hefe. Sampled this at the Restaraunt on tap. Large head, clove nose, smooth banana?/citrus taste, cloudy appearance. If you are in Chicago, stop at the Berghoff!

head to head with Sprecher.. Banana yeasty aroma. yeasty wheat flavor. very similar to german hefes such as paulaner. kind of similar schells, true german flavor without the full body of its european counterparts

Had this one bottled. Your typical wheat beer nose of bananas, cloves and orange, with a hint of cinnamon, flavor is nice and sour with some lemon and spice. This is a good wheat beer.

This brew pours a medium head of fine to medium sized bubbles that fade rather quickly. It has a cloudy straw yellow body and a strong banana aroma. There is a stong banana citrous flavor in this brew that exagerates the typical Hefe_weizen flavor of most Hefe's. Stil it is a rather good wake up call to the senses.
