12oz twist-off bottle. Golden yellow color, white head of large fizzy bubbles. Big bubbles cascading to the surface like it has been artificially carbonated by injecting it into the bottle. BORING, Fruity aroma, light banana and some clove, sweet malt. Tastes like a pale pilsner. Sweet, malty, finishes crisp. OK for a newbie, not the best Hefe I’ve had. Overall, it is just a hazy American Wheat Ale.

Wow. I have to agre with rater below me. This did not resemble a Hefewizen in any way. Poured from bottle. Clear golden orange color. Aroma was non existant. Flavor was more along the lines of a light pilsner. There was nothing resembling the hefe here. Maybe a slight crisp grass flavor. Very watery. Very bland. Drain pour for me.

What the crap? It don’t even taste like a Wheat or a Hefeweizen. I cant even figure out what its supposed to be. It reminds me of a homebrew I made out of a bunch of out dated and left over ingredients. It was crap to

I find with most shiner products they either taste very similar to a macro in their same category, or they actually deliver a beer with a variety of taste and flavour. While I do not think the taste of their Hefeweizen is too great, it is strong and a bit on the sour side, leaves a spice taste in my mouth long after consumption and it is hard to match this up with any food. I like Hefeweizen to start off with the spice/citrus flavour, but end smooth and subtle, this beer is the opposite, it starts off crisp, and ends strong. As for the person who wrote that it dilutes, well I let mine sit for 5 minutes to see if it would happen, it did not.

bottle. Poured cloudy pale straw coloured with lot’s of yeast sediment. Initial large fluffy white head settles but lasts. Candied citrus aroma. Dry, flat mouthfeel with little corriander flavour.

Appearance looked good inside the bottle with the usual golden haze, however after pouring the cloudiness disappeared and I could actually see through my glass...disappointing. Up to here it is somewhat on par but now it goes way down hill. The flavor at first is refreshing with notes of lemons and citrus throughout. However as I drank more it became far too sour and acidic for my liking; this was like drinking ultra sweet lemonade.
