Commercial Description:
Heavy Weizen explores the inner depths of creativity and craftsmanship, taking a style of ale that is delicate and quaffable and shaping it into something exuberant and sturdy. The foundation of Heavy Weizen begins with prodigious quantities of North American malted barley and wheat. Next, the finest European hops are added to complement this ale's unique disposition by giving spicy aromas. Its spirit is forged during fermentation where our Bavarian weizen yeast consumes sugars and creates divine flavors reminiscent of bananas and cloves. Then, by aging this ale, we allow the divergent characteristics to blend together, becoming one. To capture Heavy Weizen's spirit, this wheat ale remains unfiltered to leave some of the yeast in the bottle. Serving this ale with a wedge of lemon is recommended, but optional. 18 plato, 38 IBUs, 2-row pale malt, malted white wheat, hallertau magnum, saaz.

This bottled brew from Patrick767 at a rating party poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a very softly carbonated light yellow-orange colored body. The mild aroma was vinous wheat and dough. The crisp semi-thick mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The nice flavor contained notes of malt dough and wheat. A decent one that I would consider drinking again.

Bottled. An unclear dark golden beer with an orangey head. The aroma has notes of wheat and citrus. The flavor is very sweet with strong notes of peaches and mango as well as some notes of wheat and citrus, leading to a dry wheaty finish.

Cloudy pale blond color; medium head. The aroma is spicy, a bit soapy, with wheat. Medium body, yes there is wheat flavor and strong spice, good body strength, but it’s not my kind. Out of place.
