Burleigh Brewing Company – Hefeweizen 5% Alcohol

I have said and i will say it again Wheat beer is not my favourite genre, but it was hot today an i felt like trying something a bit different so i decided to crack a bottle of the Burleigh Brewing Companies Hefeweizen. Pouring into a glass the beer greets you with a clear pale straw coloured liquid a medium amount of carbonation covered with a white head around 1 – 1/2cm tall. The aroma was pretty good and consisted of wheat, coriander, cloves and citrus, mostly lemon and lime. One the palate this brew was light with pepper, clove and lime notes ending clean with an mild honey aftertaste.

Verdict: Once again not my favourite style but this number is very refreshing and fairly drinkable on a hot summers day. This beer is a limited release so if you come across it by all means give it a go!

Score: 6.8 / 10
