Pyramid Haywire Hefeweizen

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

Small white head short lived, slight lace. Hazy gold color. Toasty malt nose with a faint hint of citrus. Light bodied. Malty, yeasty flavors, blah. Medium dry finish.

Pours a cloudy light ambery goldish color. This beer tastes a bit on the light side, but there’s plenty of bread flavors and some slight sour/tartness. Finsihes slightly spicy, but the lingering aftertaste is that of bread. Too mellow for me, and the body is very lacking. I’d probably save this for drinking at the bar when it happens to be one of the more exciting offerings.

Bottle (12oz). Hazy orange, average fizzy white head, lot’s of white chunkies at the bottom of the bottle. Slightly tart aroma of fruit, yeast, orange juice, herbal hops and grass, a bit of metal. Taste is a bit harsh - over-amped carbonation, sharp yet stale hops, slightly sour grain, sugary fruit in the background - not well balanced, harsh watery mouthfeel, bit of a harsh linger to the taste - nehh; not horrid, not particularly good either.

Pours slightly hazed pale yellow w/ minimal froth. Aroma is malty banana. Light and silky nectar with relaxed effers. Flavors are fruity, malty, milky banana. The finish is fruity. Overall: too malty for this genre.

On tap in El Segundo. Yellowy wheat beer. Citrusy, light taste. Fruit aroma. Pleasant.

thanks to JK for sharing. Clear orange color with faint wheat and banana nose. Similar flavor but a watery body.

Cloudy goldish orange look. Smell is wheat but has slight roasty smell. No bright fruit aroma present. Taste is too bland.

Pours a bit dark. No real hop presence which I miss. Good flavor with pepper, lemon, and yeasty notes. Good mouthfeel. A crisp beer to enjoy on the golf course.
