Olde Towne Hefe Weizen

Brewed by Olde Towne Brewing Company
Style: German Hefeweizen
Huntsville, Alabama USA

Draft. Have this at home in my kegerator right now. This and the Porter are Olde Towne’s best offerings by far. This brew has a nice orange/yellow cloudy appearance, banana/vanilla taste on the palate is not too overwhelming. The brew has nice body and good head off draft. This brew is a good local brew, especially if you like Hefe’s -- this really is a good one.

Very good Hefe. Banana and clove scent is good, but not too strong. If you’re a fan of Hefeweizens - try this beer.

This was a nice surprise, since its taste resembles a banana nut bread version of Paulaner’s Hefe-Weiss beer. By the way Hefe-Weiss is just the Southern German way of saying Hefeweizen, as I understand it. Pretty delicious, so I’m proud it’s from Alabama, my home state. Of course, it’s still not as good as Paulaner though, and its head, does not last nearly as long as Paulaner’s would.

Olde Towne’s summer seasonal (although it is still availabe and the bartender said it would be offered year round). On draught around Huntsville, several places downtown. A thick, cloudy appearance with an aroma of cloves and banana. Nice flavor and carbonation. A refreshing citrus taste takes over the banana nose.

NIce banana clove aroma. High carb levels as apppropriate for this style. Good clove spiceyness in the flavor. Compared it with several others at Music City Brewer’s Festival and found it to be the best of the Hefe’s. A highly quaffable beer.

Bottle. Pours hazy golden with thick white head. Strong aroma of banana and citrus. Easy on the palate but pretty watery. May just be old since the brewery burned down. Oh well.

@Noogfest High5-growler–pours a dissipating white head and cloudy yellow color. Aroma is banana/clove, wheat. Taste is banana/clove, wheat.

Bottle courtesy of ericandersnavy. Pours a hazy amber with a thin white head. Smells of coriander, sweet wheat. Tastes of mild wheat, some citrus, some spicy touches. I’m very happy to see this brewery back up and running. Good effort!
