For our take on hefeweizen, we devised a recipe that takes 70% wheat and 30% pilsner malt, plus a moderate dose of Saaz; a traditional German hop. The yeast exudes notes of apricot and tangerine, and of course a good bit of clove, but with minimal banana flavor. A perfect beer for summertime drinking in Virginia!

Bottle (thanks Weihenweizen). Sour milk, lemon,orange, banana, clove, wheat malt, and straw aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with moderate but short lasting head. Moderately sweet apricot, orange, wheat malt, and mildly bitter clove and hay flavor - very good. Nice body. Solid.

Banana, coriander, and bread crust nose. Clear golden, medium head. Banana and lemon, cracker at midpalate, coriander finish. Light body, moderate carbonation. Nice transitions, good wheat character which is often lacking, refreshing.
