Flying Dog In-Heat Wheat Hefeweizen

cloudy, golden amber, not good head. kinda citrus in aroma, but nothing inviting about the scent. light bodied, slight carbonation at first, and goes down smooth. slight apricot/ citrus flavor.

12 oz bottle purchased at Holiday Wine Cellar. You got to admit, the bottle label is hilarious, but if not at least it made me laugh. Anyways, the hefe poured as a gloomy and vibrant glowing whitish yellow and was topped by a fat pillow of dissipating foam. The aroma had a pleasant scent of yeast accustomed to German hefeweizen’s with the notice of strong banana, clove and light herbal spices but it also had a soapy nose that made reminded me this was an American made hefe. In the flavor, I find a big spice profile that is unique and adds a firm backbone of personality to this brew. The flavor just completely shocked me since I wasn’t expecting such bold and distinguished yeast/ spice flavor and the well paired wheat flavor, but that’s indeed what I found. The only complaint I have, is that this beer wasn’t made available to me during the hot dreaded summer days instead of the cool temperatures of autumn.

Bottle. Pretty hazy, odd citric aroma. Thick white head. Pretty typical weizen taste. Tad off aftertaste.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Hazy, pale golden with a tall and lively, white head. somewhat odd, synthetic bon-bon-like aroma. Medium body with lightly sweet - but very unclean - fruit notes and a whiff of vitamins. No bitterness. Strange - and very far from a traditional Hefe. 051007

Flying Dog’s wheat is quite citrusy with some spice overtones. Cloudy with yeast and thick head. Strange aftertaste for a wheat.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours slight hazy yellow with a white head. Slight plastic and bubblegum aroma, wheaty and a bit spiced. Wheaty and citric flavour, quite citric actually. Ends mellow wheaty. Citrus flavours are used heavily in this brew to cover up a boring wheat brew - sad, the result as such is not bad though.

Banana and grassy head. Nice puffy white head that shrinks quickly. Mouth feel is very soft and smooth. Tastes is the same as the nose and very grassy short finish. Much like paulaner. A pretty good hefe especially from an American company. Pretty good.

Yellow pour with thick white head. A lot of cloudy yeast. Banana, wheat, tart, and a little spice.
