Hefeweizen Ale with Lemon & Elderflower
Introducing Lemonade & Elderflower Shandy, a delightful summertime companion that harmoniously fuses the worlds of tasty wheat beer and thirst-quenching juice!
We brewed this beer with premium, extra pale, German pilsner malt and locally sourced, NJ wheat malt from @rabbit_hill_malthouse. After adding just a touch of hops to the kettle, the beer was fermented dry with a classic hefeweizen yeast strain that contributes subtle aromas and flavors of banana and clove.
This super refreshing shandy is the result of carefully blending our German-style hefeweizen with a house-made elderflower lemonade. For the lemonade, we sourced single origin lemons from Siracusa, Italy for their unique sweet flavor and lower acidity levels.
The hefeweizen base lends its soft and velvety wheat character, providing a smooth foundation for the vibrant citrus notes to shine through. Meanwhile, the elderflower lemonade infuses the brew with a touch of elegance, exuding a fragrant bouquet that transports you to sun-kissed meadows surrounding a German biergarten.
When poured into a glass, Lemonade & Elderflower Shandy showcases its beautiful, hazy, light-yellow hue and quickly forms a large crown of white foam that plumes with aromas of bright citrus, elderflower, and mouth-watering German Weiss bier.
As you indulge in this liquid delight, you’ll find yourself immersed in a blissful summer reverie. The lovely carbonation tickles

Draft at the Source, 7/29/24. Unclear yellowish color, white head, moderate lace. Tons of lemon on the aroma. Berry and other citrus come through as well. Flavorful and highly drinkable. Really nice. 8/4/7/4/16
