COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Berghoff Hefe Weizen is a smooth tasting, unfiltered Wheat Beer brewed in traditional Bavarian style, using both Two-Row Barley and Wheat Malt. The cloudy appearance of the Hefe-Weizen is caused by the Vitamin B-Complex carrying top fermented yeast in the finished product.

Bottled@Monks Café, Stockholm. Hazy golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is tomatosauce-pizza-spices as well as some wheat and caramel. Flavour is being very similar with some herbal notes. Probably rather old bottle (drank during summer 2010).

This is a Bavarian style wheat beer, unfiltered--and mistakenly served with a slice of lemon (no friggin’ fruit, please!)--and represents a pretty fair effort for a contract brewer. It’s certainly much better than it had been a few years before. Brewed only using pale barley and wheat malt, it’s pale straw in color and pretty full in body, with plenty of banana and clove overtones to be expected. The finish is balanced and clean, with only the lingering yeasty esters traditional to the style.

Sampled at Berghoff brewery on Adams St. downtown Chicago. This brew was okay. I’m not very fond of the Hafe Weizen as I feel they need more fruit and less grainy. Aroma was of grains, banana, grassy. The appearance is of a yellow haze. Frothy head, appearance was great! Overall, not a fan, but will have again if I see it on tap somewhere..

Draught from the restaurant. Cloudy, a little bit less acidic than I like my hefe’s. OK.

Pale yellow and slightly hazy. Abit of that sweet aroma, but mostly lacking. Taste is watered down lemonade. Citrus and sour. Bad aftertaste. Nicht gut.

Gift from my Wisconsin hook up. Thanks Jamie. Hazy golden color with mild citrus aroma followed by a more dominant wheat. A clove and banana taste thin in body but not bad.

I’ve never been a huge fan of their stuff anyway, but this is one of my least favorite hefes for sure.

Grass and ketchup aromas. Appearance is slightly murky golden yellow. Flavors of corn, corn syrup, sharp tomatoey flavors. Odd combination of sweet and dry. Slight chocolaty note on the duration with chalkiness. Thin with almost no head retention. Unusual.
