| HISTORY OF THE STYLE | Hefeweizens originated in Bavaria and date back over 400 years. Hefe means yeast in German, Weizen means wheat.
The unfiltered yeast remains in suspension, giving this style its signature cloudy color and a soft mouthfeel. Unlike traditional Bavarian hefeweizens, however, UFO Hefeweizen uses a northern German ale yeast to produce it's signature "citrus-like" aroma. | AND THEN CAME UFO
Inspired by the cloudy beers drank in many German beer gardens, UFO Hefeweizen was first brewed in the fall of 1998.
Originally available on draft only in select bars throughout the Boston area, it wasn’t long before UFOs were being spotted in groups of six all around Massachusetts and New England. Over the years, more and more people have caught on to what we’ve been doing, but the mission has always been the same: brew some great beer and have some fun enjoying it. We hope you do too! | Learn More about UFO Hefeweizen
