Once reserved for Bavarian royalty for its light sparkling quality, Hefeweizen is considerably more democratic today. In fact, at Gordon Biersch we've brewed a special batch of our Hefeweizen to serve our guests throughout July and August!
Hundreds of years ago in Germany, wheat beers were considered "breakfast" or "after church" beers, a testament to their light refreshing flavor and a tradition of drinking them on weekend afternoon. We invite you to enjoy our Hefeweizen any day of the week this summer along with our special summer menu.

Tap @ Gordon Biersch Broomfield. Ahhh, an old favorite- haven’t had it in over a year so let’s see if I still enjoy it. Cloudy, yellow appearance with a white head and good lacing. Really nice spicy yeasty, big clove, moderate banana, wheat malty aroma. Flavor has more of the banana like a banana cream pie. Besides the banana, theres clove, bready yeast, and sweet banana malts. Super easy drinking. Sweeter and fruitier than I remembered but still a good version of a Hefeweizen.
