This is a very satisfying, hearty soup that is pretty quick to prepare. I was glad to find some hefeweizen, and was surprised that the flavor was very prominent in the finished soup. When the soup was finished, the cabbage had the appearance of sauerkraut. I think I might prefer the cabbage not to be shredded so finely. Great flavor to the soup, though, and perfect for the coming cold weather.
