Any fans of Hefeweizen?

[AlCzervik]

i drank that all last weekend in Las Vegas and i must say i did enjoy it although i think my gi tract was filtering for a few days after.

1. I like it quite a bit

More thirst-quenching than other beers. Though when I was first served one it had a lemon wedge in it, which puzzled me to say the least!

2. same here and all the fun floaty things.

6. When you can't stand the heat this summer, grab a Pyramid Apricot Ale.

Trust me on this.

9. I like that

I was surprised it was so good because it sounds a little weird.

10. Love it ever since our trip to Germany last summer!

I never drank so much beer on a daily basis in my life -- a couple of days, before noon! :P

We visited the Erdinger Brewery near Munich and they showed us how to pour correctly from a bottle (if the yeast hasn't been filtered out) -- you pour out about two-thirds of the bottle, then swirl the rest to mix the yeast, then pour into the glass. If you don't, it can end up tasting bitter because the rest of the yeast is still in the bottle.

My favorite back in the States is made by Shiner, here in Texas, after I tried several others, including Pyramid.

11. Shiner boch is also good, i lived in texas for 3 years and that was my favorite

we used to go to the salt grass steakhouse and they had shine boch ber bread---yummy.

13. It's so popular, you just order a "Shiner" and they know you mean Boch.

It's still very popular and I like it, too. Though he likes to try others, too, it's also my husband's favorite. :beer:

12. One of my favorites...with a big ol' wedge of lemon

[jgraz]

14. You mean the death metal band from Sheboygan?

Yeah, they rock!

[tandot]

15. the best beer ever. YUMMY.

[Zomby Woof]

16. During the hottest point of summer

With a wedge of lemon and if it is unfiltered, then yes. :toast:

17. I'm a big beer fan, but I never developed a taste for Hefeweizen.

Now, a nice, hoppy pale ale, that's another matter altogether. :9
