Supplier: Beers of Europe
This is the Bristol Beer Factory's Hefeweizen; a brewery founded in the early 1820's and re-established in 2004. This brewery bottle conditions so there was a hefty amount of sediment (especially as it is a Hefe). I served this at room temp.

Appearance: Gold, with a slight hint of orange; large head with large bubbles that reduces quickly but stays for a while.
Aroma: An interesting concoction of lemon, yeast, and tiny bit of bonfire smoke on the nose.
Flavour: Not much on the front and then some carbonated lemon banana. This then fades leaving an iron carbonation taste with a fruity bread back.
Body: Way too fizzy which kind of ruins it, can't really tell the body. Leaves your mouth dry and puckered in an unpleasant way.
Aftertaste: First a hint of cloves and yeast but then very very distinct taste of honey (not as sweet though).
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 3, just way too fizzy to be nice; some good initial flavours though.
Price Range: £2.39 for a 500ml bottle, a good price but not really worth it.
Food Pairings: The breadyness and the fruits would complement the spices on a piece of barbecue flavoured chicken.
