Commercial Description:
Known Vintages: 2003 and earlier

The Summer Wheat varies year-to-year. The back label should state what style it is, so make sure you rate the correct style!

Dominion Hefe Weizen is a smooth, easy-drinking American-style wheat beer and is our modification of the classic Bavarian wheat beer. Our Hefe Weizen is brewed with just the right amount of wheat and barley malts to give an appealing light color. Perle and Hallertau hops are used to balance the slight sweetness of the wheat and barley malts.

Decent. Unbalanced in a wheat beer sort of way, where the sweetness is too prevalent and the yeastiness isn’t noticeable enough.

This is a nice german style hefeweizen. Lots of banana in the nose, slightly sweet & spicey palate. very enjoyable and a good example of the style.

Very dark yellow/light gold color, very cloudy, a good sign. I picked up a lot of citrus and a touch of yeast in the aroma. The aroma carried over into the flavor. Smooth finish and light aftertaste.
