I stumbled upon this beer Saturday on my way to a friend's house for dinner.
We were asked to bring some ingredients vital to the meal so we stopped by at Sunrise Market in the East Village.
This might be the most pleasant Hefe Weizen Beer I've had in recent memory.
There were a variety of imported beers from Japan and this unfiltered wheat beer bottle caught my eye.
It seems these guys adhere to the strict German beer laws and the malts and hops are all imported from Germany.
