To miss this beer, would be very un-weiss...

Before I get started please accept my I sincerest apologies for the painfully corny title... I couldn't help myself. Now, on to the beer!

I recently tried Unertl Weissbeir, a German Hefe that's much darker in color, lighter in carbonation, and lower in acidity than its average American counterpart. In the beverage world less-acidic frequently translates to less-refreshing but I'm happy to report that with this beer, that is not the case! The lightness of weight on the tongue and the freshness of the flavor on the palate keeping it from coming off as flabby or bland in the absence of biting acidity and the traditional hefeweisse flavors, make it surprisingly refreshing!
