Honey Sweetie Wheat
Weizenbier or Hefeweizen, in the southern parts of Bavaria usually called Weißbier (literally “white beer”, but the name probably derives from Weizenbier, “wheat beer”), is a beer, traditionally from Bavaria, in which a significant proportion of malted barley is replaced with malted wheat. By German law, Weißbiers brewed in Germany must be top-fermented.
