Hefe Weizen Ale -- Pyramid (Seattle, WA)

Yet another hit-and-miss weiss... when will I ever learn?  Seriously, I'm about to swear off weissbiers unless I know I'm getting a "just born" bottle, preferably of a tall German persuasion with glassware to match.

Characteristics: Medium gold color with limited head (even after spinning the bottle), light carbonation, slightly chewy body (from the yeast) and lemony finish.

Minor Gripes: Without the yeast, this is a fairly bland beer.  And even with it, this is on the verge of dull. 

Bottom Line: Get it fresh and work all the yeast out of the bottom of the bottle, or don't drink it at all.

Rating: 4.75 / 10
