Sunset-hazed Bavarian-styled hefeweizen retains sweet honeyed wheat expectancy rounded out by big banana nose, polite clove urge, spicy lemon tang, and buttery malt creaminess.

KONIG LUDWIG WEISS
OXFORD HEFEWEIZEN
SARANAC HEFEWEIZEN
Smooth unfiltered German-style wheat ale softens up-front banana dominance with sweet yeast influence, spicy clove insistence, and teasing herbal resonance. Durable overripe banana finish embittered nicely by frisky lemon peeled hop stead. 2011 version upped the banana sweetness and deepened the cardamom-coriander-clove spicing.

BUTTERNUTS HEINNIEWEISSE
KULMBACHER KAPUZINER BAVARIAN HEFE-WEIZEN
PAULANER HEFE-WEIZEN
Enchanting lemony banana-clove essence, burrowed sourdough recline and amiable butterscotch subtlety consume hearty frothy-headed golden-clouded medium body. Natural yeast sediment coats crisp citric flourish, subtle floral bouquet and biscuit-y wheat foundation as spicy hop fizz advances. In comparison to Wiehenstephaner Hefeweiss, doughy sweetness seems creamier. The perfect German hefe not far removed from drier, fruitier Belgian ales.

(UINTA) GOLDEN SPIKE HEFEWEIZEN
(DER HIRSCH) HIRSCH BAVARIAN-WEISSBIER HEFEWEISSE
Slightly turbid whitish-strawed medium-bodied Bavarian weisse flings wispy cotton-candied banana-clove sweetness and brown-sugared vanilla creaming against doughy yeast souring. Dry plantain acridity contrasts sweet butterscotch nip at the midst. Floral-tinged orange tang ascends above candied nut reminder and salted butter fizz in dry wheat-chaffed setting that’s somehow reminiscent of Belgian-styled Celis White Ale.
