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.

FIrst off, I’m not a big fan of wheat beers or hefe’s, but I did like this beer. Murky golden color, white head, very little aroma. Taste is sweet and tangy, but finishes sticky sweet. I probably would order this again if there was nothing better on tap.

Draught. Hazy yellow color with thin head that laced the glass. Yeasty nose and flavor with a hint of bananas and citrus. Slight sweetness. Very refreshing with a smooth finish.

So so ish. Very little, if any, weizen flavor. Pretty bland for a micro, really. Would not buy again.

Hazy orange amber, film of white head. Muted, watery clove aroma. Tangy weizen yeast flavors, some muted wheat characteristics. Unappealingly fades in the finish. Mouthfeel is Medium with a slight stickiness.

Bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a medium white head. Leaves very little lacing on the sides of the glass. Citrusy nose with a hint of yeasty bread. Smooth going down, sweet finish. Nice beer for a hot night like tonight.

Had on tap in Los Angeles in some chain restaurant. Not bad orangey-blonde colour, not much on the nose but yeast, failry loose and sweet flavor structure, lacks citric solidity to prop up the flatness. A little too sticky-smooth and watery-sweet, lacking fruity or spicy hints or anything else of note - in short, I missed some character and flavor here. I didn’t know what to think of this one - it was just an okay refreshing beer that I didn’t crave a second round of. Maybe the sample was old and dis-integrating? There were no oxidation indicators, but wheat beer is a tricky thing whether German styled or otherwise. Better than some American wheats but bland.
