Widmer Hefeweizen

Widmer's Hefeweizen poured a hazy, dark yellow color with a thumb width white head.  Th aroma is predominatly thick wheat.  The body is thick, and heavy again on wheat. There is some faint lemon and banana notes with a citrus spice on finish. 

Overall an average american wheat ale. The depth and balance are nice but the flavors are a little bland, and nothing really wows here.

Tröegs DreamWeaver Wheat Ale

DreamWeaver poured a hazy, golden orange color with a two fingered width, white head. The aroma is dominated by citrus fruit with a touch of yeast. The body is more of the same, packed with orange and other fruit. The mouthfeel is smooth, with low carbonation. The finish leaves a faint dryness,

There was some nice hanging lace left on the glass. Overall, a nice wheat beer. I love the fruit but it could use a little hop bitterness to balance out the ineveitable sweetness.
