Commercial Description:
Half Moon Hefe Weizen is an unfiltered beer, naturally cloudy from wheat proteins. The grain in Half Moon Hefe Weizen is half wheat and half barley. Leaving the beer unfiltered retains its character from brewer's yeast & gives vitality to this invigorating ale. Smooth Hallertau hops provide a fantastic balance of subtle hop taste and aroma, giving you the perfect revitalizer to rejuvenate your day or night.

Bottle courtesy of Unclemattie: Poured a clear golden color weizen with a small bubbly white head with minimal retention. Aroma is quiet sour with some light wheat also present. Taste is quite weak with very light notes of wheat and a sour finale. No banana or cloves notes could be noticed. Body is really thin with marginal carbonation. I am glad I was able to try a beer from SC but definitely not a beer I will seek again.

Had it in a bottle with some bbq at the local joint. Not very flavorful, except sour and lemony. Maybe i had an old bottle but i didnt think it was one of their better offerings.

Weak aroma of lemon and light grain. Fairly clear amber pour with no head. Watery thin, slight medicne taste but not terribly bad. Some candy and cream notes, but weak. Weak vegetable aftertaste. Did I mention it was weak?

Flavor is a little bland, some vaguely light fruity flavors, finishing with a different sweet flavor that reminded me of marshmallow. A bit light, even for the style. Not too bad in the summer, but forgettable.

Bottle from Vintage Cellar. Poured a dull yellow; not much head, but visible carbonation streams. Aroma was of yeast and citrus; some banana. Flavor was tart with a dull banana. Thin palate. Forgettable and bland; but not horrendous.

Poured a clear dark yellow color.The aroma was wheaty with a tart citrusy lemon. It smells like this might be getting an infection. Or should I say has one and growing quickly. Wheaty malt flavor and a light body. Not much going on other than the new life.
