An authentic bavarian-style hefeweizen. Light and refreshing, with the hazy appearance and tangy flavor characteristic of its style.

"07.02.04 12oz bottle. Fairly dark, I thought, for a wit. Then I realized that it’s supposed to be a hefe? Wheaty, like white bread. Very light, and quite carbonated. Only a glimpse of citrus/lemon in the flavor. This beer is not as exciting as I’ve become used to with Smuttynose. Drinkable and crisp, non-offensive, but it’s almost hard to believe this is from the same brewery as the other Smuttynose beers I love."

[2] Review by Upstate Dave from Hamilton, NY, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/5/2005 11:18:46 PM)
"There were alot of things going on with this beer. The color was pale yellow with noticable carbonation. The aroma was of spice and malt. I found corandier to be the most notable spice. There was also some citrus about. The mouth feel was smooth and refreshing. I found many characteristics of a witte. All in all an enjoyable summer brew."

"This one seemed like a misfit beer from the beginning. Labelled a hefeweizen. Sure, it had a light citrus and banana aroma (the only part that "fit"). However, upon pouring it appeared at least partially filtered with only a murky appearance. It tasted pretty darned hoppy for a wheat beer, more along the lines of a pale ale. In fact, the other anticipated flavors were smothered in the hops. A disappointing beer for one who enjoys even American wheats, especially in the summer. Pass on this one."

[4] Review by Eyedrinkale from Brooklyn, NY, USA who has tried this beer (1/5/2005 6:19:28 PM)
"Now this is what I call a session beer. Light bready aroma and smooth, floffy head. Smooth, light, tasty with flavors of wheat, hay, yeast, malt and an oh so mellow bitterness. Light lemon adds just a bit of zing to it to make it really refreshing."

[5] Review by changeup45 from Orlando, Florida, USA who has tried this beer once. (9/24/2004 1:40:31 PM)
"Cloudy, peach colored with a thick off-white head which produced some nice lacing. Just not much here in terms of flavor. Somewhat weak with citrus and lemon that seemed a little watered down. Very easy to drink though, refreshing and still not a bad choice for a hot day. Always looking for a solid summer beer and sure, I'd get it again. "
