Shiner Hefeweizen

Brewed by Spoetzl Brewery (Gambrinus Company)
Style: Wheat Ale
Shiner, Texas USA

Pours cloudy pale yellow with some orange tones and a small white head that quickly fades to a patchy film. Aroma is wheat malt and sour orange hops. Flavor is sour wheat malt and orange. Fizzy mouthfeel and medium-bodied.

Cloudy, orange colour. In fact it looks a bit like orange juice. Can’t say I picked up much in the way of banana, vanilla, wheat, spices or anything else very enticing. I see it’s down as an American Wheat, not a hefeweizen (despite the name), so, as I’ve not tried too many American Wheats, perhaps that’s the style. There’s nothing objectionable about this beer - it’s crisp, slightly citric and reasonably clean. It would probably make an acceptable summer quaffer, and I’m all in favour of beers for that purpose that aren’t pale lagers. It’s just not very interesting. On tap at the Green leafe cafe, Williamsburg.

Pours hazy yellow in color. Big foamy white head. Light wheat aroma. A mild wheat beer. Pretty good for an american wheat. A little sweetness and spice. Refreshing and easy to drink.

Ok, so the nly thing cool about this beer is the label. I don’t know why I keep buying Shiner beers, as I have yet to have a good one.

Very nice wheat malt aroma,big head cloudy appearance, wheat malty taste somewhat on the sweet side and a very agreeable aftertaste, this was one of the better American Weissens I’v had

This is a better spoetzl product than shiner bock, enjoyed it nice wheat beer. Good balance.

Hazy Yellow Coloring With White Head. Some Citrus in the Flavor...Would Imagine Would Be Brought out More With Lemon...Light Wheat Flavor. Sweet and Just a Pinch Dry. Not Much Flavor or Character But Definitly Smooth and Drinkable.

Not a bad hefe. pours golden cloudy yellow with a nice white head that disappears rather quickly. not much else to say about this one
