Best part about living in Austin is that most places have Live Oak’s hefeweizen on tap.

5.2% ABV

Appearance: Really nice warm straw color with not a lot of lacing on the head.

Smell: Bubble gum and clove.

Taste: Light and slightly sweet with clove and banana to start off. Bubble gum comes through at the end which is very unique and amazing in my opinion.

Mouthfeel: Most other hefeweizen’s tend to be too carbonated for me, but I feel this beer is just right. Live Oak’s hefeweizen is thick and frothy with a nice dryness at the end.

Overall: A really nice and refreshing Summer beer. Quite sweet and easy to drink, and it goes really well with a lemon. Be on the look out for the bubblegum after taste, it’s a real treat.

I think wheat beer is a very easy thing to get into since it is slightly sweet instead of bitter which makes it easier to start digging into the different favors.
