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.

Another wild label from Flying Dog. This is a fairly sour, but still pretty tasty hefeweizen. There is a strong yeast presence and nice carbonation. Not bad for an American hefeweizen, but there are others out there I would take over this one.

From a bottle. pours a hazy yellow with some sediment still stuck to the bottom of the bottle. Smell of wheat and some lemon. Did not enjoy the taste of this beer. Just somethin about it..I can’t describe it..the taste of this hefeweizen just wasn’t something I liked.

Appearance is very nice, it even had a good supply of yeast at the bottom of the bottle so that when I poured it it looked cloudy and perfect. A cloudy yellow with a thin little head. Smell is pretty good, a deep sweet flavor with orange and lemon flavors. So far the best wheat beer outside of Germany that’s not Aventinus. Taste is sweet vanilla and orange and lemon, very nice. Mouthfeel is smooth.

Like many American Wheat Beers, this selection is inferior to its German counterparts. The taste is above average for an American Hefe, with hints of honey and citrus (orange). Appearance is clear, with decent head.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy gold. Not a fan of wheat ales as they have an odor to them that smells like over ripe beer. Taste is the same and the aftertaste is horrid.

Slightly dusty wheat aroma with a lemon touch, and arguably yeast. Orange tinged hazy gold color with a rapidly depleting white head. Sort of ringed. Leaves lace tatters. Clove, banana, touch of lemon, and wheat. Pretty spicy. Near medium body and very mild carbonation. The banana sort of gets lost after a few swallows, and the finish is clove and light citrus. But banana tends to come back. Good wheat.
