Golden yellow color. Aromas and flavors of banana, fried and caramelized plantain, short bread, roasted nuts and clove, and toasted multigrain bread with a satiny, soft, spritzy, dry medium body and a sleek, interesting, medium-length finish conveying suggestions of banana pancake and vanilla cream. An enjoyable Hefeweizen fit for any beer garden from here to Munich.

About
Hefeweizen
Weizen hefes are pale straw to deep golden in color and range from 4-6% in alcohol. These beers are refreshing and highly carbonated with banana and spicy clove-like flavors derived from the yeast strains used in the brewing process. Hop flavors play a very insignificant role in the flavor profile. This is a top-fermenting, unflitered beer style that originated from southern Germany, particularly Bavaria, and is brewed with at least 50% wheat in the mash. Noteworthy examples of this style include: Paulaner Hefe-Weizen, Hacker-Pschorr Weisse and New Glarus Dancing Man Wheat.
