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.

On Tap at Fado Seattle (sans lemon slice - YUK!). Muddy cloudy yellow beige with a small short lasting white head. Served maybe a touch too cold. Citrusy sourdough yeasty aroma. Medium light dry palate. Flavours are decent citrusy grapefruit (hey why add the lemon folks!!!!) and medium to light bitter hops. Mild sweetness leading to dry clean finish.

12 oz. bottle from Total Wine in Chesapeake. Cloudy golden pour with minimal head. Understated aroma; really not picking up very much but there is a hint of banana and clove. Flavor is very good. Well-balanced flavor of bubblegum and banana and just a hint of citrus. Nothing overwhelming here but this is a good beer. I’m really quite surprised at all of the low ratings.

nice wheat and citrus on the nose. dark golden hazy pour with a little white head. more malt than wheat flavor. wheat lingers longer on the palate however. nice mouthfeel.

Sample at GABF 2009. Pours a hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is sweet and floral with notes of honey, banana, clove, light spice, caramel, some hints of light citrus. Flavor is about the same. Light to medium body with a pleasing floral finish.

Shaker pint draft, at the Seattle taproom at SEATAC. Pour is cloudy orange golden with a smallish white head. Served with a lemon I plucked off, but lemon citrus is still the primary aroma. After giving it a few minutes to clear, some very faint citric wheat comes across. Taste is a lot more of the citric, slight earthy wheat, followed by bright citrus. Also get some floral in the back. Palate is nice and full, yet light with active carbonation. Nice drinkable unfiltered wheat beer.

The colour of pink grapefruit juice; so hazy you’ll never see through it (but understandable since it is unfiltered). The nose is clean but there is little aroma to ponder. The mouthfeel is nice but the flavor is uninspiring. This beer wuld be desirable as a thirst quencher on a hot day...not my favorite style of beer; it is what it is!

12 oz. Bottle…Pours cloudy amber with a frothy white head…that last a moderate period of time. Lemon and citrus aromas penetrate deep within the nostrils. The swallow is lively (with carbonation)...the flavor is a little dull for my hefe taste buds.

Pours orangish yellow with a fluffy white head. But the head dissipates a little too quickly, and the yeast comes out in unattractive clumps. Aroma is nice. Kind of lemon and banana. Flavor is a bit one-note. But it quenches the thirst.
