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.

An unclear orange beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of oranges, but also notes of banana and light notes of straw. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of caramel as well as quite a lot of banana and oranges. I think this is a nice Hefeweizen - why is it listed as an American wheat?

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a hazy, orangey golden with a small, off-white head. Lightly sweet, fruity aroma. Medium body with some slightly sweet malt, but no real fruityness. A hint of sulphur in the finish. 150506

I remember someone telling me that this was just an unfiltered version of the Wheaten Ale. That cannot be true, since that beer is quite good and this one is quite lifeless.

pours with a healthy light-tan head above the traditional cloudy golden/orange body. Aroma is mildly sweet wheat, spicy (clove), and light citrus. Taste is watery lemon, hint of yeast. Where's the banana?!
