Schöfferhofer Hefeweizen

Type: Hefeweizen (wheat beer)
Alcohol Content: 5.0%
My Rating: 8.5/10

- Hefeweizen is a type of beer that isn't very common in Canada. In my local beer store, the only Canadian wheat beer available is Upper Canada Wheat. Of course there are imports available from breweries such as Paulaner. In the US, I found the Pyramid Hefeweizen quite good. A hefeweizen is a different tasting beer and generally lacks the hoppiness found in "regular" beer.
- Schöfferhofer Hefeweizen is an excellent wheat beer. It is smooth and light. However, it is a little on the light on the flavours, but it is very refreshing. It is much better than the Upper Canada Wheat beer which, if I remember correctly, has an unpleasant aftertaste.
- I give it a rating of 8.5/10...
