Pretty standard hefe weizen armoa, except that it’s very faint. Slightly citrus and maybe a hint of spice. Fairly standard, though slightly richer mouthfeel. Just not a whole lot happening with this one, which is sad because I’m a fan of the organic pils and had similarly high hopes for this one.

500ml - Aroma is very mellow sour lemon and malt. Pours cloudy yellow and a small head and good lacing. Flavor matches aroma and is uninspiring. A little yeastiness creeps in at the end. Palate is creamy and tart. Not bad, but there are many better hefe’s.

I really wanted to like this one, as it was deemed "organic" at Lumiere in West Newton. I also love a good Hefeweizen this time of year, but this one from Pinkus fell short. Appearance was fine - perhaps just a touch on the pale side. Very little aroma - not bad, but just lacking. Where is that mix of banana/clove/bubblegum esters that I expected? Flavor was similarly a bit bland - thin on the palate and didn’t do much for exciting my taste buds.

Bottle. Slightly opague yellow pour with thin head. Sour taste, thin body, not well done.

500ml bottle poured into weizen glass- poured cloudy pale yellow orange, white head collapsed onto itself, medium carbonation, aroma of sourness. Hits the mouth with a pale body, some carbonation on the mouth, malt doesn’t come over at all, some sourness and clove quality on the finish. I’ve had better...

Pours with a lot of foam fuss. Pale less, only slightly cloudy, almost clear. Smells is weak, like the sweet (corn) grain of a cheap american pale lager. Taste is pretty weak, like a corny, crappy pale lager. Why is this called a hefe-weizen? A little fizz for the mouthfeel. I just can’t find a redeeming quality for this watery beer (bier). It’s a little bitter, only slightly though, very slight, I guess.

Pours cloudy yellow/orange with a large foamy head. Spicy hot aroma with some sour wheat. Tastes like water-crackers... bland and boring. Tastes like wheat blended into water. Gritty palate. Could be the most boring beer I’ve ever had. Tastes like some crappy "home brew"
