Commercial Description:
Cbc’s version of the traditional hefeweizen, (a German unfiltered wheat beer.) Made with 50% malted wheat and lightly hopped with German & Czech varieties. The unfiltering creates a cloudy visual appearance and the wheat combined with yeast creates a very refreshing, light-bodied beer taste, with a unique zing. Typically served with a slice of lemon.

Very cloudy yellow with a fizzy white head. Bready aroma. Slight citrus taste and an overpowering malty/bready taste.

Draft at Manchester Grand Hotel, SD,CA. Poured hazy amber color with an average fizzy white head that diminished slowly with good lacing. Moderate banana citrus wheat aroma. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet spicy finish of moderate duration. My expectations where not met.

The aroma had citrus, light pineapple, malts, grainy, and light honey. The beer poured a cloudy pale yellow color w/ no head and lace. The flavor had citrus, grains, grapefruits, light pineapple, and malts. The mouthfeel was light and creamy.

Tap, The Local. Poured hazy orange in color. Light grainy aroma. Slightly yeasty. Grainy somewhat bitter flavor. Some spice is noticable. Bitter finish. Doesn’t taste at all like a German Hefe to me.

Unimpressed. This an American Wheat doing a very bad imitation of a German Hefe. Pours cloudy gold with a good white head. Aroma is all wheat. Flavor is all wheat. I finally submitted and dropped the lemon in halfway through to give it some flavor. No banana, no yeast, no way I’m getting this again.

Draft at brewery in Coronado, CA: No head, chunky brownish orange. Nose if light of wheat and lemon wedge, no esters. The flavor is a bit sweet and fat. The finish is lacking. The body is there, but it doesn’t complement anything. What I said before...

On tap at the brewpub. Not much here. Dark gold, almost amber in color. Cloudy, but not full of yeast. No banana esters to discern. Weak hop aroma. A lousy beer.

On tap @ Coronado. What do you think they did - served it with a lemon slice! Poured a hazy, pale golden color with a small head. Aromas and tastes of Lemon (duh) and lighter spices. Fizzy body.
