Flying Dog In-Heat Wheat Hefeweizen

Brewed by Flying Dog Brewery
Style: German Hefeweizen
Frederick, Maryland USA

Pours hazy yellow gold with a big white head. Aroma is banana and spice, with some clove coming through. Flavor is spicy, wheaty, banana, and some clove. Very good american hefe.

On Tap at the Blake Street Tavern, Denver 13/10/2008 Lemon fruit aroma. Golden coloured and hazy in appearance. Creamy on the palate with a crisp and slightly dry wheat finish.

A decent beer that places a lot of emphasis on the wheat without showcasing that much of the hefe yeast characteristics.

Golden pour little white head smell of wheat and banana and left some lacing taste of wheat banana and clove not overpowering in flavor just a simple brew nothing really offensive here... a poor mans belgian white with a hefeweizen label

I was pumped to try this one but it was pretty dissapointing. Poured a cloudy orange with a quickly diminishing off-white head. Not much for aroma and the taste was slightly sour Tasted like a hefeweizen/belgian white mix.

Has more flavor than almost any other hefeweizen that I’ve had. Flying Dog beers are impressing me (and I’ve only tried two so far).

Opaque straw color. Rocky white head. Nose has a lot of citrus and fresh bread aromas. Very nice. On the palate a pleasant, dry wheat cracker taste at first followed by faint banana and some clove. I think the wheat is doing more in this beer than the yeast does, or the yeast should I guess (the nice banana clove). But still, a very impressive beer. Body is medium, perhaps on the full side for a hefe. Definitely thicker than most weizens, and so I’d say a tad less on the drinkability scale. On a hot summer day this thirst quencher will fill you up quickly.

On draft at In de Wildeman, Amsterdam. Yellow coloured, white head. Banana nose. Banana wheat flavour, quite ok initially but it has an odd cloyingly sweet finish. An attempt to make a Hefeweizen, but not a very good one.
