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 Hazy golden pour with a white head. Aroma of banana, wheat, and a bit of yeast. Flavor follows with more fruity flavor. I’m not a hefe guy, but this was pretty good for a hefe.

Hazy gold with white head. Aroma of bananas. Wheat and banana flavor reminding me of hometown Schlafly #15.

12 oz bottle purchased at John’s Grocery in Iowa City. Slightly hazy golden color. Head was bubbly and white with good retention, but only minimal lacing. Aroma was of clove, citrus, cereal grain, and caramel. Slightly sweet up front with dominant clove disguising the malty/wheaty backbone. These flavors give way to delicate citrus, but the clove returns at the end and lingers with a touch of sweetness.

Poured from bottle....nice cloudy yellow. Head not there but a wonderful sweet aroma...aroma of bannana and lemon...tastes sweet and metallic thought...the metallic is a turn off. Not the worst wheat in the world...although not impressive thanks to the metallic.

12oz bottle @ Old Chicago. Hazy golden with a small fizzy white head that has almost no retention. Aroma has banana, burnt plastic, lemon, and a hint of old moldy wheat. Flavor has more of the moldy wheat With just a hint of banana and a little bit of citrus, minimal bitterness. Low carbonation with a light to medium body. Kinda crappy.

Poured from a bottle at Old Chicago as a golden cloudy with a fair head. Nice wheat flavor with banana clove and other spices and some citrus in the finish.

From a 12 oz bottle this poured a cloudy gold with a fat, very thick white head. Great lacing for a hefe. Nose of banana and yeast. Good smooth mouthfeel. Flavor or citrus and coriander. Nice long lingering finish. A good solid hefe and true to type. Nice to drink.

Bottle courtesy of my buddy Rich. Dark yellow, small white head, looked like a glass of juice. Really strong spicy aroma, lots of coriander - very nice. Good taste - very flavourful. Lots of lemon, clove, banana and spice. Light wheat body. Citrus finish. Maybe just a tad watery. My wife mentioned "it tastes like summer". That’s better than anything I have written in a long time.
