Hammerheart Von Winterherz Verhasst Oak-smoked Hefe Weizen

 Hammerheart Von Winterherz Verhasst Oak-smoked Hefe Weizen.


6.8% ABV, Hammerheart Brewing, Ely, MN. 

Look at Winterherz, that hefe weizen hater. I’ve never had a beer named after me, and I like Hefeweizens. 

Slightly hazed, dark golden, large white head. 

In the nose: there’s our banana, coupled with cloves! Fresh & funky, a perfect Bavarian weizen aroma. And along comes the smoke. 

In the mouth: smoke is more prominent on the palate. Banana & clove more subdued in the flavor. Great texture, with superb drinkability. No smoke bomb, it’s a fairly traditional take on a weizen, and I am enjoying it, thoroughly.
