I wrote: "Lemony smell despite the orange slice which was recommended for this beer. A light slightly citrusy taste. Starting to build that slight fruity pebble taste. No more like fruity pebbles. Good, but not my style of beer anymore. I recall trying several Hefeweizens way back when I first started drinking beers more often."

Website Information:
In the world of unfiltered wheat beers, what sets Windansea Wheat Hefeweizen apart is perfectly clear. We use a centuries-old pure strain of Bavarian yeast known for producing unique banana, clove, and vanilla flavors during fermentation. A mix of pale barley, white wheat, and Tettnanger hops gives the beer a full refreshing taste with no need for an orange or lemon.
