A traditional unfiltered German-style wheat beer (Weizenbier). The 50/50 blend of choice 2-row and German wheat malt, plus German Hallertauer hops makes this Hefeweizen truly representative of the style.

Big Citrus nose. In fact, big citrus flavor, too. Seems to have a fairly rich mouthfeel, but finishes just a tad medicinal.

Hazy dark straw color with a moderate frothy egg white head. Phenol/banana aroma with a touch off wheat sweetness. Fairly malty and mild spice and banana flavors. Finishes a bit sweet.

Pours up with the standard hefe appearance: cloudy body with a white head that laces the glass. The aroma is also standard hefe, with the typical esther suspects. The palate is average, but where this beer makes its mark is the flavor. Its noticeably maltier than most hefes. While it lacks the satsifyingly exaggerated esthers of the Schneider Weisse, it’s a nice hefe when you’re looking for something just a touch different.

This is a nice, maltier than usual hefe. Nice big esters in the flavor and aroma.

ON TAP, Sunspot - Knoxville. Medicinal aroma. Head doesn’t last as it should in a wheat. Flavor is cloves with banana aftertaste. I hate this style!!

Light banana nose. Hazy gold. Tart and highly carbonated, reminded me a bit of Unibroue Don de Dieu with a whack of banana esters. This is good hefe, but it would be better with a stiffer ABV, and would probably age well. From the brewery, it has a certain ’green’ taste that I associate with new Belgians.

This beer is amazing. Tried it for the first time a couple of months ago. Since, I have purchased 6 ’Party Pig’s in a Box’, which is what they call their 2 1/2 gallon plastic keg. Great overall rating. Best with lemon wedge.
