Flying Dog In-Heat Wheat Hefeweizen

July 2008 Beer of the Month.

Overall Impression: It’s got an interesting aroma and flavor, and is an all around solid wheat beer. It’s kind of annoying that the beer of the month club send beers from down the street that I can clearly get in stores near me, but whatever...

From 12 oz. bottle. Pours deep cloudy yellow with medium head. Lemon, yeast, bread, not quite what I am seeking in this style. Thin to medium body and slightly bitter. Tried several of these over a weekend and just could not get myself to enjoy them. Crafty packaging, just not very good craft beer in my opinion. Would not purchase again, nor would I take one if offered. Maybe it’s good on tap?

12oz bottle. Cloudy dark yellow color with a large white head. Nose is light cloves with some lemony notes and hints of banana esters. Palate is a little thin and fizzy. Flavors are lightly peppery and lemonywith some nice yeasty notes to it.

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a medium white head. Aroma and flavour of banana bread, yeast and cloves. It’s quite low in esters and rather thin bodied. It’d be refreshing on a warm summers day though.

For a wheat it is a bit light. Some yeasty wheat flavor with the citrus and some malt. A bit thin and simple.

sample on 6/14/09. pours a golden unfiltered with a small white head. lots of lemon on the nose. light body with a good amount of citrus, but kind of falls flat towards the finish. light body. decent wheat, but one dimensional.

Pour from 12oz bottle. Cloudy yellow brew with one finger of head. RIch, complex aroma with bitter grains and yeasty overtones. Somewhat bitter wheat flavor with nice, full mouthfeel. Not heavy but definately not a light flavor or bodied beer. Good.

Poured yellow with a white head. Aroma of.... Some fruit flavors backed by bread and water.
