COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The fourth in our Bam Farmhouse series, and perhaps our most adventurous; a traditional farmhouse style hefeweizen. Weizen Bam seamlessly blends traditional German style hefeweizen yeast with our own local wild and sour cultures, for a melange of the most flavorful sort. Ruddy golden, with yeast driven esters of banana, spicy clove, and nutmeg all wrapped up with a generous dose of good-natured rapscallion delight.

Apple, sour, Brett, spicy. Nice combination. And at 4.5% you can knock back a few of these. I’ve had this a few times now and love it more avery time.

jrodooo5 (500) - Wilmington, Delaware, USA - MAY 4, 2013
Pours gold w/ thin white head that doesn’t leave lacing. The aroma is quite sour. The taste definitely leans toward the hefeweizen side w/out much influence from the sour. It’s pretty refreshing & drinkable but not outstanding.

Beerman6686 (3125) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 30, 2013
This poured a hazy straw yellow color with a fluffy white head. looked like liquid lemon morange pie glowing against the fire light. Aroma was of bright lemons, grass, wheat, light spices, and mild funky oak. Flavor was just as complex and refreshing as I was expecting from the appearance/aroma. wheaty lemony woody funk juice. Probably the most refreshing beer i’ve ever had.

Bottle shared at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Cloudy yellow color. Bretty and funky aroma with some barnyard, lots of fruits and some lactic notes. Refreshing sour flavor with brett, oak, some wheat, lactic acid and nice fruitiness. Great and extremely refreshing.

Jesterdeal (1053) - Marlton, New Jersey, USA - JAN 25, 2013
Aroma of banana peel, pilsner yeast, sourdough, and wheat. Pours opaque blonde with a mild head. Taste is lovely. Sour lemon peel, yeasty bread, juicy underripe banana, and just a bit of dry champagne. Very flavorful throughout. Easy to drink beer.

Hazy yellow with white head. Nice aroma of green apples, wheat spices, hay, maybe some white grapes. Taste is slightly sour with hints of apples, hay, spices, very dry. Pretty good! =)
