Burleigh Brewing HEF

HEF, the label boldly proclaims. I've got to say I like the moustache on there too. Subtle but persuasive, like a well practiced pool boy.

Hef here also won gold at the world beer cup in 2012 - quite the achievement in what is a class filled with competition both new and ye olde. I'm not one to place too much store in these awards overall but drinking this, it's easy to see how it's done so well.

Perfectly on style it seems with all of the elements you'd expect from a hefeweizen, the beer also manages a lovely mouthfeel to ensure you experience it all as you drink. Typical banana, cloves, sweet yeasty notes, creamy head. Nothing radical, just a bloody good hef. Trust in the mo.

Good stuff, needs a retry, looking forward to slamming back a 6-pack over the summer sometime.. 8.0
