Commercial Description:
Schöfferhofer German Wheat Beer Hefeweizen is brewed in Bavarian tradition using wheat malt. The live yeast gives bottle "conditioning" guaranteeing a refreshing fruity flavor. The yeast sediment also leads to the "cloudy" nature of the beer. Care needs to be taken when pouring. Tilt glass and poor slowly. Before pouring last quarter, roll bottle gently back and forward until sediment is dissolved.

Bottle. Lovely Hefe hazy transulcent orange colour, big head, strong lacing. Flavour has the usual hefe hallmarks (bananas, hints of spice, citrus). To my palate it coated the mouth to strongly, a little unpleasent, but not off-putting. Nicely carbonated, quite light and refreshing. A big plus is that its the cheapest branded import German Hefe I can find in the UK: £1.39 a 500ml bottle from Oddbins. Which is nice.

Golden, hazy, nice head. The aroma has notes of wheat and fruit. It’s less sweet than the average weiss, and has a bit more citrus. It has notes of wheat, fruit, banana (not as distinct as expected). The flavour quickly grows watery, and I would like more power and body.

Goo hefeweizen - looks excellent with a huge head, tasted a little too sweet -more of a summer beer I think.

Towering bow-shaped apricot trombone capped with snowy froth. Woody banana perfume. Banana-bubblegum fruity with a moreish nibble of peppery-woody dryness in the finish. A real touch of bitterness for a Hefe. Spritzy, silky, fruity and balanced. A highly agreeable conclusion to the Dusseldorf pilgrimage.

Good hefeweizen. Hazy golden-orangish color with a big white head. Aroma of fruits, specially banana but also orange, and yeast. Sweet flavor, wheat easily noticed. Nice beer overall but nothing really special. Just another good (average) hefeweizen.

This is the most banana-flavoured weize I’ve tasted. Which makes it in my book totally horrible. Doesn’t feel right giving this such a low rating, as I know it’s a "good beer", but I just can’t handle the estery taste of banana and melon on my beer. This is like drinking babyfood.

Bottled. An unclear orange beer, with a huge white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of banana and chewing gum. Also ythe flavour is sweet, with some wheat and again fuit and chewing gum. Very low bitterness. long finish, refreshing beer.
