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.

Not very good. I couldn’t tell I was drinking beer. Yellowish color, foamy white head, fruity aroma, hint of some citrus. Perhaps I prefer more hoppy beers and Hefeweizen is just not for me. Although, I’ve tried other wheat beers that I’ve enjoyed. Maybe I’ll give it one more chance, or maybe I’ll give the rest away.

This beer stinks. The beer just had no flavor and had a bad aftertaste. I think Flying Dog need to re-evaluate what they are trying to accomplish with this beer. I have 2 left in the fridge and as much as it pains me to throw beer away, I might have to with this beer. I will never buy it again.

A drinkable wheat; nothing special. I’m rating this from memory, so maybe I’ll rerate next time I get it, which will probably be in another variety pack.

Smells wheaty and spicy, but not a strong smell. It’s yellow with a moderate amount of white head that disappears quickly. Tastes wheat and hops initially, then it’s a little sugary and then somewhat bitter in the aftertaste. “Tastes pretty good,” – Brad. I say it could use a little more body, it’s somewhat watery.

Cloudy golden pour with a minimal white head. Aroma of bananas, cloves, and nutmeg. Warm butterscotch flavor. I usually don’t care for wheat beers but this one was quite tasty. Perhaps it was just tasted at the right place and time or perhaps my tastes are changing. Bring on the hefeweizen!

Cloudy yellow colored beer. I half expected some red tones given the name. I was suprised by it’s hint of fruit flavor.

Maybe my palate just isn’t made for this beer. Second time I’ve tried this in a Flying Dog sampler and frankly it’s terrible. Decent appearance and aroma with a cloudy off-yellow color and faint scents of fruit and bread. But the taste and finish I couldn’t even muscle through to the end. I couldn’t even give it away to be honest.

A very hazy yellow/orange color, with an almost white head. Smells a little to sweet. A decent fruity taste, that feels almost right going down. After getting the feel for this beer I’d wished that I had picked up something else instead, I really didn’t want to finish the glass I’d poured. It was good enough, but was a bit off in all categories.
