Shiner Hefeweizen (Hef-ay-vite-zen) is a classic unfiltered Bavarian-style wheat brew. Once poured into a glass, the distinctively cloudy Shiner Hefeweizen delivers a fresh, satisfying flavor from start to finish.

Pours cloudy dark golden color with white head. Aromas of wheat and citrus. Sour lemon flavor with some wheat. It doesn’t have the usual spices associated with hefeweizens. Light to medium body with mild carbonation.

From tap at Yard House in San Diego. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Light fruity and mild wheaty aroma. Flavour is light bitter and fruity wheaty. Mild acidic touch to a light bitterness into the finish. Ends with a light citric to acidic semi dry impression.

Overall Impression: Slightly tart, but overall an average and inoffensive Hefe option, it's macro-wheat beer in its qualities...

12 ounce bottle from WFM Charlottesville, VA. Hazy peach colored pour. Medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Very tart yeasty aroma. Taste is fairly bland, but does have notes of wheat and spice. Thin bodied,

bottle - Pours hazy light yellow with a one finger white head. It smells mainly of citrus. It’s a sweet, light beer with some lemony notes. It’s refreshing enough as is common for the style, but ultimately unimpressive.

12 oz. bottle. Well, yeah. There is some yeast stuck to the bottom of this bottle. My label says "orange and lemon peels with honey added." Very cloudy dark yellow in my glass, head disappears quickly (so I’m dinging it for not having a proper hefe head). Smells like a malty lighter beer, with a hint of lemon. Taste is spritzy, with wheat and noticeable orange, but pretty tart. Not terrible, just not what one should find from a beer calling itself a hefeweizen. Still, kind of a nice summer brew.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy pale golden color with a small white head that diminishes quickly to nothing. The aroma is a spicy orange and light hops. The taste is a sweet orange and a light clove aftertaste. A decent wheat ale and easy to drink from Shiner.

Not great. Wheat, orange and slightly eau d’skunk. Pours with an average sized, frothy, white head that goes away. Slightly hazy orange hue. Slightly sour finish to the taste, pretty basic. Watery mouthfeel, pretty fizzy.

Wheat aroma backed by a hint of citrus; sort of dusty. Hazy pale golden color with a fizzy white head that left immediately. Medium body with fizzy/creamy carbonation. There are citrus tones along with wheat. It ends with a bit of citrus sour. Didn’t get banana. Didn’t get spice. That aside it’s a fairly decent drink. Heck, it’s closer to Wit than a Hefe.

Subdued aroma of sweet corn. Cloudy honey gold color, medium head. The flavor is mildly sweet blend of grain and hops, lagerish, and rather unimaginative. Curious vegetable finish, like cauliflower and hops, not strong. Kind of a drab hefe. The Shiner black lager was much better.
