Very interesting topic. I've made 3 hefe's total. 1 was a straight up wheat/pils/dash of munich hefe WLP300 hallertauer. Second was a weizenbock.. 75%wheat/pils/dash of caraaroma WLP300 hallertauer. 3rd is still in secondary and is a hefe stout (kinda wierd, experimenting) 60%wheat/pils/roasted barley/chocolate/munich WLP300 hallertauer as well.
Now the first hefe, tasted great 5 days after bottling (9days in primary).. no tartness, tasted like a true hefe... fermented around 68-70F
Second hefe, the weizenbock, has an extreme sweet/tartness to it 5 days after bottling. Really freaked me out, thought it was gonna be gross and have to toss it. A few weeks later, after forgetting about it, it tastes amazing. The banana flavor is coming through way stronger than the first hefe, and I owe that to 72-75F fermenting temps. I was thinking that was the cause of the tartness too... but the tart is gone, and I'm really happy with it. I think the sweetness I tasted early was the banana mixing with the tart.
Third hefe, bottling today... been in the fermenter for 6 weeks. That's a long time for a hefe, I've just been vacationing and too lazy to bottle. Hopefully it will be ok since its a wierd stout/hefe combo.
