Summit Hefe Weizen is brewed with a high percentage of malted wheat, then a small amount of authentic German weizen yeast is left behind to help maintain its brewery freshness. And that’s what accounts for Hefe Weizen’s unique cloudy appearance.

12 oz bottle-pours a rich white head that laces and hazy yellow color. Aroma is clove, earthy, light/medium malt. Taste is clove/nutmeg, earthy-maybe slight chocolate, spice hops. OK carbonation. Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for picking this out.

Bottle as shown. Pours a cloudy yellow gold with a small frothy white head that lasts awhile. The aroma is clove, banana, and citrus. Decent spotty lacing on the glass. Thin mouthfeel with a banana and lemon zest with a nice dry finish. Very refreshing, a good hefe from Summit.

12oz shorty bottle. Tan-orange color, with only some faint haze, underneath a respectable white head. Sweet, malt dominated aroma with some Hefe-yeast qualities seeping through. Some candy sugar orange flavors, pretty sweet and sugary for the style. The low ABV allows it to still be mellow, but I find this one sort of misses the mark. Cloying sweet finish. Not a good example of the style.

12 ounce bottle courtesy of skyview. Thanks! Pours a hazy lemon yellow color with a medium white head. Average head retention and poor lacing. Aroma of wheat, bread and caramel. Taste is bread, yeast, subtle caramel notes. Thin bodied.

Bottle. Strong banana/clove aroma. Cloudy pale yellow color with small head. Initial sweet banana, clove and wheat malt flavor with a lemon peel dry finish. A very solid Hefe - very nice.

bottle - Pours slightly hazy yellow with a thin head. It has a light yeast aroma with a touch of citrus. The flavor and mouthfeel is pretty light as I’d expect for the style. There’s yeast, wheat, mild hops, and some very light citrus flavor. This one is a pretty mediocre hefeweizen.

Layer of something on the bottom of 12 oz twist off bottle. Learning to pour a hefe/wit is really cool. Do it correctly, no cloudyness and muck stays in bottle. No identifyable aroma. Initial wheat flaver, nothing bitter. Clean and fresh and the finish is nice, no linger.

This is the first beer I have had from this company. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy pale golden color with a large white head. The aroma is sour wheat and banana. The flavor is dry wheat and light malts with moderate banana and a hint of fruity hops. The finish is dry. Nothing special.

Clearish (just a bit of haze) light orange body, thin ring of off-white carbonation. Nose of banana, clove, and tangy wheat. Has a nice mouthfeel with subdued banana and clove, leaving a nice, round, creamy yeast profile and plenty of tangy wheat. Tangy, slightly bitter finish. Nice for the summer months.

2004 draught. Pale yellow with some slightly darker orange tones, quite clouded, good white head and lacing. Smells highly citrusy, more oranges than lemons and plenty of wheat. Flavor is coarse grainy wheat, dry, sour yeast and hops but well balanced (at the last second) as the lightly sweet sugars come in and save the day. Very tastey and well-done, though seems more an American Wheat than a German, little if any esters, no banana. Dry wheat astringency on the very end.
