2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
From a Dundees mix pack. Pours a hazy gold with a good foamy head that lasted a while. Aroma of grain, yeast and citrus. Flavor is similar, with a hint of spice. Not a great wheat, but a nice refreshing brew on a hot day.

Very much a wheat beer that pours a cloudy gold. Other than the appearance there is not much else other than a very slight herbal/cirtris taste or aroma that needs to be hunted for to find.

Pour was slightly hazy light golden. Aroma is sweet wheat. Flavor is real bland. light wheat with only a hint of spice. Slightly dry finish. Not good. Won’t buy again.

Bottle Bangor. Odd non beer expirience. Light as air with light biting bitterness that does not taste of hops. Finish is bland and boring. Just don’t buy the mix pack.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Hardly an American Wheat by style, and nowhere close to being a true Hefe....but it is a fresh/crisp tasting light ale. Airy and empty aroma, there is honestly nothing to note. Vibrant golden orange color with a thick white head and good lacing. Light bodied, refreshing and clean. Wheat is evident providing a dry/grainy flavor. Slight bitter hop taste along with a minor fruitiness. Soapy, awkward aftertaste becomes distracting. Not very exciting.

JW Dundee’s Hefeweizen is a slightly cloudy, very sparkling light golden ale with a thin white head that leaves nice lacing. It has a very fresh aroma that seems to come mostly from the hops. It’s citrusy with a little bit of biscuit. It is pretty light bodied, very crisp and quite smooth. The flavor is very mellow, but bright and lemony. It’s a total American Wheat-- hardly a Hefeweizen. There is a little bitterness at the end of the taste and the hops match the flavor of the wheat very well. It’s very refreshing!

UPDATED: JUL 28, 2008 Part of the sampler pack the wife brought home for me. Light body is supported mostly by the yeastyness of the unfiltered beer. Lack-luster appearance. Head is bright white and has some legs but not many. Tinges citrus peel and light light spices are mere ghosts of what a "hefeweizen" should be. The second one will be used to kill slugs in the garden. Actually I drank it instead of the pale bock which killed some slugs but not as many as Busch.
