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.

Cloudy yellow with small white head. Slightly musty wheat nose. Flavor is mildy sweet, corn and wheat, no clove or banana here, and no hop flavor either. Small diacetyl. Don’t call it a hefeweizen if you aren’t going to taste like one. Bleh.

Bottle. Poured a hazy orange color with a foam white head. Maybe a little lacing on the side of the glass. Aroma is grain, grass, wheat, and citrus. Flavor is all the same with some citrus. Very good for a wheat.

I had low expectations for this one reading some of the other reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised. It poured cloudy yellow with very little head and little or no aroma. For me the taste was all caramel and malt. I did not expect this from a wheat beer. I am more of a malt guy than a hop guy or wheat guy, so I liked that. Not great, but pretty good for this style.

Cloudy, darker than most wheats, poors frothy but quickly diminishing head. Light yeasty aroma with citusy hints. Taste is rather sour, somewhat malty with hints of apple. Finish is sour and somewhat unpleasant.

Pours a hazy golden brown with a medium sized head. Aroma is of wheat and yeast, and the taste is mainly malted wheat. Definitley more of a wheat ale than a hefe, lacking the spicy notes of a real hefe. Maybe a slight spice tatste in the background but not much. Still a decent wheat ale and pretty cheap for a 12 pack. But Franzikaner is about the same price and is a real hefe so I probably won’t get it again unless it is convienient.

Poured a hazy yellow with a moderatley sized head. Typical hefeweizen with yeasty and citrus flavors. Lacks a little in flavor, but goes down smooth.

Grainy wheat aroma and flavor. no clove or banana, as is appropriate in an American wheat. Very cloudy. While it is true to style, I find it all together boring.
