hefeweizens
Cloudy wheat beers
Hefeweizens are German wheat beers, unfiltered and cloudy with suspended yeast.
The name combines *Hefe* (yeast) and *Weizen* (wheat).
They typically show notes of banana and clove from the yeast, with a light, refreshing body.
Hefeweizen is traditionally served in tall, curved glasses that showcase the haze: I'll have a hefeweizen with my schnitzel.
