  1. WEIZEN BEER (Wheat beer) comes in two variants, 'Hefe Weizen' (Yeast Wheat) cloudy so not heavily filtered contains yeast residue, and 'Kristal Weizen' (crystal wheat) is filtered leaving a very clear beer. Both are excellent refreshment on a hot day. I personally like the clear variant, but the cloudy type appears most commonly available. Here in Australia I mostly get these wheat beers at Aldi at certain times of the year. Aldi have both zero alcohol and high alcohol types at various times of the year. Currently I have a number of 500mL high alcohol ones, 2 standard drinks per 500mL due to alcohol content. Also still have 6 bottles of zero alcohol, as we enter autumn here. No more hot days left, but need to consume it while still not too old. As made to German purity laws, only 4 basic ingredients, no preservatives or chemical stabilisers added, should be consumed I reasonable time, not stored for months to years it spoils, drink only good fresh beers.

  2. German beer drinkers EXPECT a good foam cap. If poured beer has no cap of foam, it implies old stale beer. So effort to pour without ca foam layer is giving a bad look to the beer.

  3. To me beer needs to be cold when served. In Britain beer tends to be room temp, so effectively 'warm' spoils beer for me.
