Dundee Wheat Beer

Brewed by High Falls Brewing Company
Style: Wheat Ale
Rochester, New York USA

Bouteille. Dégusté avec french tickler. Bière de couleur Or brumeux avec un tres mince collet collant. Odeur de blé, bananes, pain blanc et mais. Saveur de blé, épices, une bière sec, un petit semblant de bois. Bière simple.

Cloudy in appearance and honey in color, head dissapeared rather quickly but left a nice lacing. I’m drinking this without the cusomary lemon slice but it has a slight citrus bitterness all on it’s own. It probably would be helped with a lemon wedge. Aroma is barely detectable but a touch of malt is coming though. Overall I’d guess I’d say I’ve had better Hefe’s.

(12 oz. bottle) dundees is beer for the masses - the focus is on drinkability. their beers will give you an impression of the style, but they’re not going to pack a significant amount of flavor. this hefeweizen is true to that formula. it tastes like a blend between an american wheat and a light lager. the wheat is present but there’s no cloud or body. carbonation is predominent. that said, its not all together unenjoyable. its crisp and has a pleasant flavor.

Being a fan of hefeweizens and wheat beers, I was looking forward to trying J.W. Dundees’ attempt. Not a bad beer. Not especialy cloudy for being an unfiltered beer. Decent aroma, slightly sweet (butterscotch?). Okay taste, pretty mild. Easy drinking beer.

Hazy yellow with no head. Light wheat aroma with some lemon tartness in the taste.

Smells very faintly of sweet malts. By faintly I mean barely there. Pours a very very incredibly light straw color. Pretty much yellow. Color reminds me of cheap beer. Taste is very weak hints of banana with the overly dominant wheat malt flavor. I would not call this a hefe. If anything it is a bad american wheat. Not something I would drink a lot at all...

there is something i just dont like about this one. i dont know what it is. a little strange tasting. very off style wise. tastes wrong.

Presentation: Poured from a 12oz bottle into my “duff beer” hefeweizen glass. It has a light hazy golden color with an off white or light beige head. The head builds up thick and slowly fades to a thinner covering. The lace is slick and sides down with the beer as I drink it. The aroma has sweet wheat and doughy malt essence along with a light, all most fruity yeast as well. The flavor has some sweet doughy malt and wheat flavors that are a bit light and thin but refreshing. The finish has a light crisp citrus edge that I like. Its body is light with a smooth creamy palate. It a nice safe flavor. Nothing is out of balance or offensive just mellow.
