Commercial Description:
Skillfully brewed with over 60% wheat malt (Bavarian tradition only calls for 50%), Pyramid's Northwest style Hefeweizen has a smooth body and a cloudy golden color. This crisp refreshing beer is unfiltered for extra flavor.

Bottled. This is a decent Hefe, but seems to really need a lemon wedge. Without the lemon, it’s a bit flat and yeast like. With the Lemon wedge, it really opens up. I know hard core RB folks are likely anti Lemon wedge, but for this beer, I like. Also, and perhaps my wife likes this beer with the Lemon.

Cloudy golden, thin diminishing head, releasing spicy aroma of yeast, wheat. Flavor of crisp wheat and spicy hops. Smooth, mildly bitter with a clean, dry finish. Refreshing brew.

This beer is amazing of the tap, not so much in the bottle. Pours a hazy orange. The taste is bitter, you get a lot of wheat and some spice. It’s one tasty brew, especially with a wedge of lemon or my all time favorite, Hefeweizen with a wedge of orange, it really brings out the flavor.

From bottle. Pours hazy orange colored with a short lived head. Refreshing on a hot summer day. Nnot complex but serves its purpose. Citrus and wheat aromas and flavors.
