The yeast shines with the familiar tastes associated with the style. Maybe because I went with lme but the color is darker than others I've brewed from other recipes. I know it didn't scorch, so i have no clue why it is so much darker. Kind of throws of friends expecting a straw colored wheat beer.

Very good taste a little on the sweet side. I enjoyed it very much.

I'm very satisfied with this kit..also I want to add how impressed we are with your delivery speed. Trust me, I have told my Brewing friends about you. Bill McCarthy

I like Beer, being born and raised in Germany.This Hefeweizen is easy to make and I think for the money it is a great Deal Prost

Used DME. I find this tastes better than LME. This is an easy, delicious, and fast kit. Quick brew day because it is an easy recipe. Used WLP300. After fermentation, I cold crash for only a day because hefeweizen is supposed to be cloudy anyways, so quicker to the glass. I will be buying this kit again many times in the future years.

Got this because I like this type of beer turned out very well. Will definitely get again.

The flavor of this ale Hefe is something else. We get a little bit of smoky flavor, plus the wheat, and a fruity finish.

This beer is super simple to make but turns out great. 3 weeks in primary and then kegged. Nice banana/clove flavor. It takes virtually identical to a local craft version, only darker in color. WIll definitely make again.

My brother and I brewed this beer because of liking the Hefeweizens we have tried. Did not disappoint. Very nice clean from first sip to finish.

So delicious! Smells like banana cream pie!

Added 0.4-oz freshly ground coriander seed and lemon zest at flame-out. Fermented with Imperial Organic Stefon yeast. 1-week in the primary then straight to the keg. Pressurized to 12-psi and shook until fully carbonated. After one week, it tastes great! This is one to drink as fresh as possible. Mouthfeel is a bit thin, but that's to be expected for a 4.5% Hefeweizen. Lots of yeast in suspension, but that's the way I like it. Might have cleared more in a secondary with cold crash but then you lose that lovely yeasty characteristic that pairs so well with the malt. The wife loves it. Great for these hot summer days!

This recipe works great with the Weihenstephaner yeast. It’s as close as I’ve ever come to the real thing.

Very easy drinking beer. Great for those who aren’t part of the IPA craze. Can’t find an easier beer to brew. Great for those staring out. A bit hazy may want to use clarifier. Absolutely will brew again

This is a breeze to brew. Only one hop addition & not multiple addition schedules. It is fermenting nicely right now!

Simplest kit possible. Used a Belgian yeast and came out perfect

I made this as an extract. I've drank a lot of Hefeweizens over the years and this one will stand up to any of them. Clove with a touch of banana. I could not have asked for a better result!

Brewed this and it was almost too easy. It taste good, but the mouth feel leaves a little to be desired-it's really thin. I did add some extra hops I had laying around and it turned into a nice, hoppy, hef.

This is a great standard brew, that is the easiest beer ever – no hops to add, no grains to steep, just malt to heat up and brew. This makes it kind of boring, but that also means that there’s less room for error, and that it can be completed relatively quickly while doing other things on a Sunday evening.The beer itself is pretty good, too. In my brewing of it, it’s a tad sweeter than I want it to be, but the hef flavors are all there, and it’s mellowed with age. Definitely recommend for a good straight-forward hefeweizen beer.

Great Hefe. Highly recommend.

I have made it many times before snd love the flavor of a traditional Hefe.

I'm not normally a huge fan of wheat beers, but this one turned out awesome. I fermented in the 67-70 degree range and ended up with a very nice complement of clove and banana. Everyone who's sampled it has raved about it, so I expect I'll be brewing this one again.

This is the best beer I've brewed, awesome summer beach brew! I'm about to do my third batch of it, can't get enough.Started with the German Hefe extract kit. Brewed with WLP 320 yeast so the bananas don't hide the watermelon.Added 1/4 lb honey 30 minutes into boil to bump up the ABV, 4.5 % is fine but I like a little more kick (came out at 6.2%). Can't taste the honey in the beer.After 10 days in primary added 6 cups of watermelon to secondary, let it bubble for another 10-12 days (check final gravity). This time I'm just going to add it to the primary after initial fermentation stops and see how it goes - less dishes to wash and there's really no need for a secondary with wheat beer. Used an ice cream scoop and potato masher to juice and then strained through cheese cloth (don't like floaties). Football size seedless watermelon was just barely enough to get 6 cups, might try a seeded one next time, they seem to have a stronger taste.Slight watermelon nose and up front taste, finishes clean - and goes FAST, I'm going to start doing 10 gallon batches. You get enough watermelon to instantly know what it is but not enough to be overpowering.

This was the 2nd kit I ever made and man was it a hit! It is so easy to brew and is the perfect summer beer. I was terrified of it tasting too much like bananas so I used the California Ale yeast from white labs instead, and I think it gave it great flavor. Will brew this one again during the summer time.

I brewed this as my 4th attempt at home brewing. As they always say "4th time is a charm!" This beer turned out perfectly. Had fantastic flavor. Was easy to brew. Was a hit with the neighbors. I will brew this one again!

I recently served this beer at a party, and my guests could barely tell the difference between mine and another hefeweizen brewed by a large commercial craft brewery! In fact, most of them preferred mine! I will definitely be making this again.

This was my second brew. Very easy to brew. My airlock went crazy the second day. Very smooth beer.

I am a new brewer, and this was my first kit, and I could not have been more pleased.The kit was very easy to brew, and the instructions were very clear and simple to follow. The hardest part of this kit was WAITING for it to be ready to drink!Carbonated very nicely, and was an excellent, drinkable beer. Will gladly brew this one again!

This was the first time brewing this beer. It has a violent primary fermentation and requires a blowoff tube. I kept it in the primary for 2 weeks. I added 4oz of cherry extract to the bottling bucket for a little tart kick. I bottle conditioned for 2 weeks. It turned out great. Everyone loves it. You get the nice banana and clove flavor from the hefe, along with a tiny tart kick at the end. Nice little addition to a hefeweizen. I would definitely recommend this kit and brew it again.

I really liked brewing this recipe. I have been home brewing now for at least a couple of years and starting to add on towards better equipment for my beers to come out better each time. I will say though this is one of my favorites as it fermented down in the basement at 64 degrees F. My color is more amber than the picture but you can taste the spiciness like clove in the sip and a little sparkle too. I wanted another bottle but need to save these for sharing with some of my friends and at our campground. Also, this brew for me did not take too much time at all to ferment and condition. I always secondary my ales after the first week, and this was very easy and rewarding. I would recommend this ale to others. I recommend also the White Labs Hefe Yeast. White Labs is awesome!

I've made 12 5 gallon batches of beer and this kit was so simple that it surprised me. There are no grains to steep. You basically heat water and add this. My 1st, 2nd and 4th beers were Hefeweizens in order to try to replicate Andorfer Weizenbock (Wei?br?_u Andorfer) The Weizenbierbrauerei Thomas Andorfer brewery is the smallest of the 4 wheat beer breweries in the college town of Passau, Bavaria, Germany and home of a beer I will always love. Does this recipe compete? Nope. I feel that failing to steep grains results in a quite bland example of a hefeweizen and I say that as I have added it to my cart and will check out and purchase it again. This kit is a bare bones example of a German Hefe that can be modified like the Belgians hard core. Think of it as a blank palate. Always and most certainly add at least an additional pound of sugar, use liquid and dry yeast at the same time with a blow off hose (I suggest Mangrove Jack).
