We invited the brewers from Weihenstephan, the oldest brewery in the world, to our brewery to concoct a co-created beer of epic proportions. The resulting beer takes both our signature styles, IPA and hefeweizen, to create a whole new beery entity. The beer rocks a classic Hefeweisse base of wheat and Munich malt with aromas of banana and clove and a distinctive trademark haziness. On top of this we have layered a tapestry of US citrus hop character from Centennial and Simcoe.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel Florentin. Thanks zvikar. Hazy yellow. Aroma of phenolic spiciness, kinda soapy, light fruitiness, and some hops, a bit stale. Wheaty flavor, a bit estery, a bit spicy, with some fruity hops and a bitter finish. Medium-bodied.

Bottle at home. The beer is slightly hazy with an orange color. Unlike most hefeweizens the head is small and has an off -white color . The aroma reveals yeast with fruity and spicy tones (cloves mainly), but there�s also typical hop aroma with orange, lime and grass. The taste is even more fruity with preferably grapefruit. In addition there�s hay, grassy hops and pale malt. Mouth feel is smooth and soft , and the bitterness is not unexpected more pronounced than in an ordinary hefeweizen. This creation is a really fresh and fruity blend of a hefeweizen and an IPA .

Flaska från SB. Mer veteöl än IPA eller mer Weihenstephan än Brewdog om man så vill. REsultatet är riktigt luckad med en i många stycken ganska klassisk hefe med mycket jästkaraktär, nejlikor och grön banan men lite torrare, stramare och friskare med en liten extra nypa citrus och strävt grönt bananskal. Gott
