Colonial Pub Pint, Hefeweizen
May 19th thru May 25th
Brewer's Description
Bavarian aristocracy originally brewed wheat beer as a light, refreshing summer alternative. This cloudy, light colored beer with a soft malt flavor conformed to the German Purity Law. They became known as Hefeweizens.
You'll discover that authentic Pub Pint taste and character thanks to our Colonial Pub Pint® System. Millions of tiny bubbles release when you open a pint to give your beer a creamy head and smooth pub finish...the way Pub Pints have been enjoyed for generations.

Rett says A hidden gem?
May 19th, 2008
I really want to find a Cold Spring beer that I like. And it seems likely that among the many different lines they produce that there would be a hidden gem. So when I found the Colonial Pub Pints I was pretty excited. They come in tall cans (just like Surly!) and the labels feel right with their old time mustachio’d gentlemen. But the Hefeweizen is still lacking something, and I can only describe it as tasting watered down.
Now when I purchased the four pack at Surdyk’s I saw the Colonial Pub Pint Old Johnny Ale variety as well. It was on a display that said “Manager’s Choice,” and at the sale price of $4.50 I picked up a four pack of it as well. So I’m still holding out hope that I’m going to find something I really like.
