Commercial Description:
Brewed in the centuries old tradition of German beers, our brewers use more wheat and proprietary yeast to give it the unmistakable character of a flavorful, authentic Hefeweizen. The High proportion of wheat gives In Heat its smooth, full-mouth feel and our special yeast gives it its unique fruity and spicy aroma.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours slight hazy yellow with a white head. Slight plastic and bubblegum aroma, wheaty and a bit spiced. Wheaty and citric flavour, quite citric actually. Ends mellow wheaty. Citrus flavours are used heavily in this brew to cover up a boring wheat brew - sad, the result as such is not bad though.

Banana and grassy head. Nice puffy white head that shrinks quickly. Mouth feel is very soft and smooth. Tastes is the same as the nose and very grassy short finish. Much like paulaner. A pretty good hefe especially from an American company. Pretty good.

Yellow pour with thick white head. A lot of cloudy yeast. Banana, wheat, tart, and a little spice.

350 ml bottle from Holiday Wine Cellar. Hazy yellow with a fizzy white head. Banana bread aroma and taste with a sick sour finish.

Bottled. Good but as other raters have pointed out not a traditional German hefe. Pours cloudy yellow with a nice creamy white head that lasts all glass. Aroma does have banana but flavor is rather creamy with no real spice or citrus.

Draft at Flying Saucer. Pours amber golden with a dissipating white head. Aroma of banana esters, but not aggressive. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavor of banana bread with some slight toastiness and lemon. Some hop detection mid palate. This lost me on the finish, which has some sour butteryness. Not really a classic hefe. This is more of an hefe influenced American Wheat.

Cloudy yellow body with a very small white ring of foam. Lemon and hay on the nose, not much hefe-bananas here. Taste is banana flavoured lemon juice. Although the body is light and crisp, it has all the hay/wheat I expect from the genre. A little hop presence. The beer is refreshing but it gets a bit annoying by the end of a single bottle although I couldn’t quite figure out why exactly. Overall this is a rather typical but slightly below average hefeweizen. My motto: less drinking of In-Heat Wheat, more drinking with in-heat girls.
