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.

Light orange, unfiltered appearance. Citrus on the nose and palate with floral overtones. Goes down very smoothly.

Didn’t really pick up much German Hefe notes in the nose. Mostly wheat, light fruity sweetness, some citrus notes, and an earthy peppery hop presence. Pours cloudy golden orange with a thin head. The flavor starts with wheat and cereal notes then moves in to a light fruity sweetness followed by some quenching crispness and a light earthy peppery bitterness in the finish. Nice quenching brew with lively carbonation. Was looking for a little more yeasty twang and notes akin to a Bavarian Wheat though.

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

On-tap at the brewpub. Pours cloudy orange witha medium sized white head, good lace. Smells subdued malty and plenty yeasty. Tastes cereal malty and yeasty with some slight citrus. Run o the mill, I’m afraid. Medium body, fizzy carbonation.

Draft... RBSG ‘08... Hazy deep yellow ale with a small, fluffy, off-white head. Subtle, lightly citric American wheat aroma... refreshing and tantalizing. Medium-bodied and mildly creamy with dancing carbonation. Adequately bittered and citric. Finishes a bit grainy, a touch tart and then dry. There’s nothing traditional or German about this hefe. Refreshing and very drinkable.

Sample at the brewery. Pours cloudy orange, white head. Aroma / taste, hoppy, some spices, saaz hops, metallic finish with some yeast, and light citrus hops.

On draft. Cloudy orange hue with big thick head. Light fruity and banana aroma. Flavor is subdued for the style, wheat and fruit flavors dissipate quickly leaving a sweet citrus tang in the finish. Creamy smooth texture with fair drinkability, a decent beer that misses the typical hefe phenols.

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.
