Wheat beers are a type of beer brewed with a significant proportion of wheat in addition to barley. This gives them a light, refreshing taste and a cloudy appearance. Common styles include Hefeweizen, a German wheat beer known for its fruity and spicy flavors, and Witbier, a Belgian style often brewed with spices like coriander and orange peel. These beers typically have a lower bitterness compared to other styles, making them easy to drink. They are often enjoyed in warm weather and pair well with light foods, such as salads and seafood, enhancing the overall dining experience.
