Samuel Adams Hefeweizen has a traditional spin on a classic American craft brewing style. This crisp, fruity wheat ale is cloudy, because the yeast has not been filtered out. Bavarian Spalt hops give the ale a crisp elegance, that is not bitter and leaves a clean aftertaste. Cheers!

Pours a nice hazy yellow. Nice big head. No real aroma and flavor is weak. There is a bit of citrus in there but not much. Overall its a nice looking beer but after that there is really nothing there.

Hazy golden color. Quite poor, paper, the typical Weizen character is hidden; a small hoppy note…

This is a total rerate. When I had this beer before I had rated it a 1.7. This beer has really improved or else I just had a bad bottle before. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a cloudy bronze color with a large frothy head. The aroma is all banana. The flavor is full of light sweet malts with noticeable banana and a hint of caramel and pepper. The mouthfeel is moderately thick.

Cloudy yellow, with a small head. Smells slightly clovey and banana, and tastes pretty much the same. Has absolutely no originality or distinguishing characteristics.

Hazy light orange/yellow colour with a super-dense tan head. Aroma of lemon, wheat, sugars and a bit of coriander seed. Light-bodied; Light tart taste with hints of metal-nothing special. Aftertaste bittered and unrefined-a sub-par wheat. Overall, not really worth trying-cherry wheat is better, so is the weiss. Thanks to Phil (haddon90) for bringing a bottle of this up for me! I sampled this beer on 12-March-2004, purchased from Giant in Manassas, Virginia as a six pack of twelve ounce bottles.
