Hefeweizen is the most popular beer style of the southern German state of Bavaria for good reason. This wheat beer has a rich banana aroma, but finishes clean, slightly tart, and refreshing. Our brewmaster’s favorite beer style is Hefeweizen, which is probably why he took especially good notes on how to make it during his studies in Germany.

On draft as part of a flight at Global Brew, Evansville. Hazy dark yellow, no sparkle, with ring of head, trace lacing. Aroma is wheat and banana with mild clove and burnt quality. Taste is strong wheat, banana, coriander, grains of paradise. Smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation, finish as taste. Good representative of the style. Good.

Draft pour at Pub 13 in Pontiac, Illinois. Poured a very pretty, bright, hazy yellow color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was banana, cloves. Flavor was really nice wheat body, with some orange citrus, and spices. Pleasant stuff!

On tap at Scotty's in Champaign. Cloudy yellow appearance with a white head. A little heavy on the clove. Slightly doughy. Pretty good yeast character. Lightly spicy. Not bad.
