Can't say I'm overly impressed with the "HEF". Tried it a few months back and had to work hard convince myself to finish the glass... I'd rather drink my own Hefe any day (it comes highly recommended by my family from Erding).

Also, as a Bavarian - I'm skeptical ... How many of the big names took part?

But well done to Brendan and Peta nonetheless...
