This popular German wheat beer is brewed with unfiltered wheat and yeast, which explains its unique clove, banana and bubblegum flavors. It’s also highly carbonated, so you get a creamy, fluffy mouthfeel with each sip.

A weizen glass is best for this beer because the large top allows room for the uniquely fluffy head. Plus it locks in the aroma and showcases the beer’s color. You can also pour this beer into a stein.
