Furstenberg Weizen Hefe Dunkel
Nice amber colour with flowing head but tasted thin...I used to make homebrew better than this. Don't go out of your way...

HefeWeizen is just not a style that can be tolerated as a half-hearted effort.
Paulaner and Magnotta are not bad in bottles but all Newbies and lurkers on BT really need to get out and try Denison's Weisse on draught to know anything about this remarkable kind of beer.
Denisons is a Toronto-made rendition of this Bavarian wheat ale style ("Hefe" refers to the cloudy suspended yeast) and this version also happens to be highest-rated Weizen in the world on ratebeer.com. I just like it because it's good.
Bar Volo and BeerBistro are consistent supporters of Michael's beer, which (lucky for us) is a style best produced locally & drunk as fresh as possible on tap. Patio time, prost!

That was quite apparent to me during my Vancouver stay. Practically all the brewpubs had a hefe available ranging from terrible to weak to average. Bleah.Belgian wrote:HefeWeizen is just not a style that can be tolerated as a half-hearted effort.

If the Magnotta Wunderweisse is on tap, it's worthy of drinking too. Just avoid the bottle version which suffers greatly in that form, IMO.
Had my first hefe of the summer on Smokeless' patio on Wednesday. It was a Konig Ludwig since Denison's wasn't there but the Konig was up to the task, no complaints.
