      This one was a golden color with a nice thick fluffy head. It didn't last long and then i saw the murkiness. A splash of this one and you don't get what you expect. With most unfiltered beers you have a thicker body. The UFO doesn't seem to have that quality. It's quite light in body in fact. On top of that the flavors of the normal Hefeweizen isn't really that strong. I would consider this one more of a wheat beer then Hefe because of it's really light character.
      The other Hefeweizen I reviewed was Dreamweaver. That one went heavy on flavor and blended it well. This however is a different animal. It blends it's flavors well but they are really more subtle then I personally like. My follicles forgot this one soon after it splashed up, and that usually doesn't happen. I could see the face grabbing this on a hot day but that's about it for such a mellow beer.
