Hefe beer, short for Hefeweizen, is a traditional German wheat beer known for its cloudy appearance and smooth, refreshing flavor. Originating in Bavaria, “Hefe” means yeast in German, referencing the unfiltered yeast particles that give the beer its hazy profile. Made primarily from wheat and barley malt, Hefe beer typically contains water, hops, and yeast, which contribute to its fruity and spicy notes, often reminiscent of banana and clove. With an alcohol content generally ranging between 4-6%, it’s a lighter choice compared to many other beers. While Hefe beer contains fewer calories and carbohydrates than dark ales or craft beers, it is still calorie-dense and best enjoyed in moderation. However, its unfiltered nature means it retains some nutrients like B vitamins from its yeast. Hefeweizen pairs beautifully with lighter fare like salads, seafood, or German cuisine such as pretzels and bratwurst.
