This bright, fruity wheat ale is unfiltered, retaining a natural haze from malt proteins, crisp, bright flavors of wheat, and fresh, fruity ester complexity from our proprietary ale yeast. Accentuated with Noble Spalt-Spalter hops, Samuel Adams Hefeweizen has an elegant and pleasant bitterness, finishing smooth and clean.

[2] Review by StBlues from Lubbock, TX, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (9/12/2008 7:42:46 PM)
"This beer poured a light golden color with a bit of haze. Small white head that disappeared pretty quick. The aroma is full of yeast, fresh bread maybe a sour dough. Medium mouth feel. The brew was quite tasty--a good sour wheat flavor. Overall--I'd buy it again."

"This beer poured a cloudy golden color with a tall white head that remained for some time. It had a floral sweet aroma with a nice and balanced malty flavor. Very nice."

[4] Review by bigred00 from buffalo, NY, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/15/2008 2:32:23 PM)
"It pours a light pale yellow with a body that was only slightly hazy. [Odd for a hefeweizen] The head faded out quickly and the carbonation was nearly flat. The aroma is very light with some citrus notes. Its flavor is very plain for a hefeweizen. There is some light citrus and wheat with a tangy finish. On the palate it feels light to medium bodied with a smooth mouth feel. Overall this was a very disappointing brew from a great brewery.

[5] Review by zythum from union city, CA, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (6/8/2008 6:35:46 PM)
"Pours a hazy gold/yellow color with a medium creamy head. Aroma has a faint fruity sweetness. Taste is well balanced, hint of lemon, but kind of weak and watery. No real noticable yeast here."
