Commercial Description:
Brewed in the centuries old tradition of German beers, our brewers use more wheat and proprietary yeast to give it the unmistakable character of a flavorful, authentic Hefeweizen. The High proportion of wheat gives In Heat its smooth, full-mouth feel and our special yeast gives it its unique fruity and spicy aroma.

Bottle. Uclear orange colour with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of wheat, banana, yeast, hops and spice.

Sampled at the Flying Dog tasting at Blacklick Wine and Spirits on 2.12.09. Cloudy gold copper pour with a medium white head. Aroma of yeast, spice, hop and something I can only describe as ass. Overly yeasty with a malt and sugar influence. Not a big fan of Weizens to begin with, and this one is certainly not swaying me.

(Sample Date: 1/13/2009 Source:Capital Ale House - Downtown) Grainy spicy nose. Cloudy light yellow golden. Very light peach pear fruitiness along with grainy wheat flavor. Actually has a rather nice Belgian character. Very light body. Finish is relatively dry and spicy.

Not a big fan of wheat beers but this beer was definitely better than Blue Moon. Strong banana and clove taste.

Pours to a super cloudy yellow-focused-orange. One finger white head that quickly dissipates, decent lacing. This tastes exactly like a German Hefe. It’s not bad, but by no means is it outstanding. There is no reason to purchase this beer, unless you’re giving someone a generic example of a style.

Bottle. Pours a yellow color. Very hazy. Classic german wheat beer. Decent but probably wouldn’t get it again.

Bottle. The color is urine-sample yellow with the head to match. Very hazy, but thats ok for a hefeweizen. Smells malty with some banana/fruit smells. Tastes alot like bananas and some seasoning. Malt sweetness comes through after the initial hit of banana. Too much banana and not enough spice. Also some bitter in the aftertaste that shouldn’t be in a hefeweizen. Pretty smooth. Not one of the better hefeweizens I’ve tried.

Very enjoyable beer. Nice banana/clove/corriander/orange and lemon peel mix to it. I found this to be very enjoyable, if a little boring, but I rate my beers on initial impression and not how "grand" they are. And I really liked this one.
