Day 146: Mash House Hefeweizen


Name: Mash House Hefeweizen
Brewer: Mash House Brewery (Fayetteville, NC)
Classification: Hefeweizen
Alcohol: 5%

Thoughts: Today the wife and I met my parents and some old friends for lunch in Raleigh. We met these friends when we were living in Fayetteville and have both gone our separate ways. However, the restaurant we ate at served beer from Mash House Brewery which is in Fayetteville. It was slightly sentimental. The presentation on this beer gets some bonus points by the way. It pours a very cloudy orange color with an abated white head. The aroma has the usual hefeweizen suspects. There is banana esters, yeast, clove and tons of sweet citrus. The flavor is rock sold with more spice, hints of banana, and a sour puckering jab from the citrus. This is a powerfully flavored hefeweizen with a smooth, silky feel. Mash House has made a drinkable, exciting, excellent drink. 

Rating: 85/100
