Hi Guys,
I'm a noob at this and need advice.
I've developed a taste for Schoefferhofer Hefeweizen and want to brew a clone but don't know what yeast to choose. This may sound dumb but I worry that German\Bavarian wheat yeast strains will make the beer like a Heineken (which I hate but I can't describe why) I don't like the flavour but I don't have enough tasting experience to describe why. What is the dominant Heineken flavour? There are many other German lagers that I don't like because of this flavour but I don't know if it is yeast generated flavour or relates to some other ingredients in the German beer styles.
