Pyramid Haywire Hefeweizen

Brewed by Pyramid Breweries
Style: Wheat Ale
Portland, Oregon USA

This is your average hefe. Light yellow body and a white head. Flavor is refreshing and clean. Smooth and pretty malty. Good on a hot day for sure...but there are better.

Bottle. Light sour lemon and wheat aroma. Cloudy orange-yellow color with nice head. Slight sour lemon and wheat malt flavor. Boring and bland.

Bottle. Pleasant lightly citrus/wheat aroma. Cloudy pale amber color with a quickly disapearing head. Slightly sour citrus flavor. Some other fruits in the background, but it leaves a sour taste in the mouth. Just not what I’d like. There are better hefeweizens out there. This just doesn’t have any oomph.

Not too impressive. Very wheaty aroma. Large, frothy, off-white head covering a hazy gold body. Corny and bitter taste, not too much wheat. Dry mouthfeel with fizzy carbonation. Not impressed.

This is a good ’burger beer’. I skipped the lemon probably because that’s how Corona tries to disguise the fact that there is no flavor. That was almost the case here, but this was a refreshing, glossy-smooth drink that tasted good ice-cold.

Decent. A good wheaty US hefe. Many american wheats don’t deliver the goods like this does, IMHO. Bit sour.

Even for an american wheat hefe this is weak. Just not much flavor to it and what it has is rather aweful. Nothing stands out, wheat taste is watery and bland. I also don’t get where they get crisp from, there is almost no carbonation, leading to very little dryness, watery and flat mouthfeel, this beer is the opposite of crisp.

Light cloudiness; deep yellowish, gold-orange. Thin, fading head. Lively carbonation; thin and light texture. Couldn't really find the typical banana and clove. More like an "American Wheat" than a Hefeweizen. Light malts, slightly sticky. Mild bitterness (herbal). Finished dry on the tongue and cloying in the throat. Pinch of citrus, but falls short. Kind of bland and boring.
