weihestephaner hefeweise and kristal weizen
allagash white

southampton double white
blanche de bruxelles
brookylner weisse
franziskaner dunkel hefeweizen
kapuziner scharze wheat beer

...that i can think of at the moment ^_^
I'm a sucker for Franziskaner.
i can definitely relate. franziskaner was the german hefe that got me into german hefes. in the years since it has lost a bit of its lusters and its oomph, but it's still a good hefe. i prefer their dunkel a wee bit more than their standard at this point.

Aventinus isn't on this list yet? For shame!
~smacks forehead~
hey now, i can't remember every wheat beer i've had ^_-
speaking of aventinus, might as well give props to the schneider-sohn eisbock also. dif beer, i know, but still damn good and the best eisbock i've had to date.
nummers!

If you can get your hands on Tree Brewing Co.'s Hefeweizen wherever you live, you are in for a treat (Kelowna, BC, Canada). It has won numerous awards in BC and Canada in general, including the gold medal for wheat beer at the 2008 Canadian Brewing Awards. It's spot on - very reminiscent of the Bavarian original - lots of banana and cloves - excellent stuff.

Besides that I'd have to agree with a few of you on a Bavarian classic - Franziskaner!!! The best in my books!

Can any of you find Franziskaner where you live (that is if you don't live in Europe... )
I love me some Magic Hat Circus Boy.
Love the Kellerweiss! And Aventinus is an all-time favorite.
