This is pretty much everything I love in a Hefeweizen - turbid glowing orange - frothy, sustained head - quaffable but complex - light bodied, but full and round in the mouth - dry and tangy, with a complex but subtle and balanced profile of phenols - clove, banana, white pepper - a sageish spiciness - finish is yeasty but light, with a slight lemoning tang lingering - I’ve been waiting for a local hefe this good - thank you, Copper Kettle!

Tap @ CK. Good looking, fluorescent, yellow-orange appearance with a fading white head. Fairly spicy yeasty, potent citrusy, banana, clove, sweet wheat malty aroma. So good so far. Moderately spicy, somewhat tangy orange citrusy, fairly strong banana, light clove, sweet wheat malty flavor with a smooth, orange-banana smoothie finish. More banana in the aftertaste. This doesn’t blow my mind, but it’s a very solid offering and dare I say the best German Hefeweizen in recent memory from the slew of new breweries in Denver. Thank you guys. Now make this baby a year round beer and make lots of money.
