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.

Draught. Mildly acidic nose, not much there. Cloudy orange-red withi a thin and patchy head. Clove and banana flavor, proper for style but unimpressive. Some bite in the palate.

Slightly off white head sits atop a cloudy orange golden color beer. Aroma of clove, citrus and wheat, all mild. An almost spicy sweetness up front with mild honey, banana and wheat. Makes me think of summer and sunshine (gay, I know). Lightly carbonated and thicker bodied than I anticipated. Smooth throughout and enjoyable. Nice maltiness to it with a pleasant amount of hops to match. Warms well. I really enjoyed this beer.

Draught at Chili’s Goleta. Hazy Gold with a lasting head. Sweet banana aroma. Crisp and banana flavor with wheat tang and some light bitterness. Not quite a bavarian hef, but pretty close and quite drinkable. Creamy and smooth body. Lacks the more interesting spice of a good hef, but still comes out pretty good overall.

Bottled. Slight yeasty aroma. Pour a orange-yellow color with vert little head. Yeasty, bread dough like flavor with slight fruity notes of apricot or citrus. Slight hop kick at the finish. Works for me as either a summer drinking beer, or would pair well with a lot of foods.

Draft at Colonial Downs Beer Festival. Aroma was kind of missing. Citric flavor but well balanced. Medium body. Doesn’t need a lemon. Stands on it’s own.

Unfiltered yellow-orange with large white head. Aroma of wheat and cloves. Semi watery malty body with taste of banana and clove. A little sweet and a little chalky.

I must admit, perhaps not a hef kinda guy, but none the less i like this one. Perhaps to my own detriment, for this hef is not the norm in the northwest. hazy body with lingering mello tones that meander around the idea of depicting dirty earthy notes. A hef that does not need the lemon, for it rings rich with citris and body.

Pours hazy orange with a little off white head. I can’t help but like the way wheat beers look in the glass, especially on a hot summer day. If you’re looking for a nice German hefeweizen, this is not the beer for you. Its definitely more of an American wheat. Not much aroma other than faint biscuity and lemony notes. The flavor is the same, but very refreshing. Not bad, just boring.
