Commercial Description:
The standard by which all other wheat beers are judged. Our deliciously deranged American-Style Hefeweizen is an award winning take on this Bavarian classic. This refreshingly unfiltered wheat ale delivers a distinctively smooth flavor worth sharing with friends.

Poured yellowish cloudy gold with the scent of yeast and lemon. Very smooth and easy to drink.

Bottle poured a cloudy gold with a lingering white head. Aromas of yeast, bread and a hint of clove. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of wheat, yeast and a bit of sourness with a smooth, clean finish.

Agreed. This is an American wheat, not a hefeweizen. Cloudy and golden with a lofty white head, it has a light malt, yeast, and lemon juice aroma. The flavor is wheat with a bit of lemon sourness. Probably goes down better in the Summer. It’s January.

Draft. Another beer that I was cornered into drinking. This is because I was at a sports bar. Either this, Shiner Bock (had that), Bud swill, or Guinness (had that way too many times). Appearnce is orange yellow, which is a tad too cloudy and with no head. Typical wheat beer aroma, but too weak. Basically, this was a very average Hefe to some it up.

Tap Pour at Scarpa’s 2 in ABQ, NM. Served in a pint glass with the traditional lemon slice garnish. Not much head, but the cloudy orange-amber body was a sight for sore eyes. Aroma dominated by the citrus aspect, but a little wheat comes through. No traditional banana here! Flavors also dominated by the lemon/citrus, but more of the wheat/bread, and some spices come out. I do miss the banana evident in other Weizens. Very tasty for an American Hefeweizen... but these boys still have something to shoot for. Cheers!

A pretty strong lemon flavor comes through. Can’t taste much wheat or banana flavor. Beer is a little hazy and retains the light head well. Light after taste. Not bad

Pours a hazy golden yellow. Aroams of bread, fruit and spices. Flavors of orange, spice and some hints of citrus hop.
