82. Harpoon UFO White

If you have followed my blog at all you know I like Hefeweizens so it is no surprise that this one gets a high rating. UFO stands for UnFiltered Offering and this beer has the cloudy appearance of most unfiltered hefes. Easy to drink and only a hint of spice and wheat in the aroma. If you are new to craft beer or someone that usually drinks beer from the MEGA brewers hefeweizen is a good way to start drinking quality beer. Low alcohol content makes this easy to drink one or more and very low IBU rating so no aftertaste. This would be a great beer for hot summer afternoon.
Pros: Cloudy appearance, easy to drink
Cons: 
Alcohol Content: 4.8% ABV
Calories: ???
IBU (Bitterness): 10

Rating: ★★★½☆
Brewers Website: Harpoon Brewing
Brewers Description: Light, crisp, refreshing UFO White follows in the tradition of spiced wheat beers that have been brewed in Belgium for well over 300 years. Brewed with orange peel and a unique blend of spices, UFO White is the perfect choice for a summer’s barbecue, a night out with friends or any time you¹re thirsting for something a little different. Like UFO Hefeweizen and UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen, we leave UFO White UnFiltered for a more natural taste and appearance.
