Gordon Biersch Dunkelweizen

Perhaps my least favorite type of beer is wheat beer. I’ve had some that I thought were good, but I’ve been underwhelmed by most that I’ve drank. They’ve been a little too light and a little too flavorless for my taste. Gordon Beirsch Dunkelweizen is a wheat beer that I can enjoy, because it’s a dark beer and it’s also unfiltered. As far as beers go, it still on the lighter side, but it has a nice malted flavor that typical wheat beers don’t have. I like the fact that it’s unfiltered because that means there is more flavor floating around in the bottle. Unfortunately most of the country probably won’t be able to try this tasty beer, as Gordon Biersch beers are only distributed in California, Hawaii, Nevada and Arizona. Also, it’s a seasonal brew available only from March to June. So, get some while you can (and also try their Märzen, which is very good).
