DRAFT REVIEW: UFO Hefeweizen
RATING
93

Harpoon’s unfiltered wheat beer pours cloudy yellow-gold with a big white crown. The citrus aroma explodes with a zesty lemon character sprinkled with pepper spice. Starting doughy and tart, the flavor takes a sweet turn on the tongue with ribbons of lemon that pull through the aftertaste. Neither exceedingly sweet nor bitter, the beer’s balance is easy on the palate. Because it’s unfiltered, the beer has a chewy texture and the suspended yeast lightens the body. UFO finishes clean, with just a touch of lemon juice in the aftertaste.
