It’s not summertime without a good Hefeweizen. A bit hazy with a bit less bite than typical wheat beers. Banana and vanilla notes with mild spiciness. A bit more substantial mouthfeel than mainstream hefe beers. Excellent beer!

Oct 27, 2009 341 ml bottle from MBLC Liquor Mart in Winnipeg, MB, sampled 6/26/08. Hazy orange amber colour with a mostly diminishing fizzy off-white head. Banana, citrus, and lightly spicy aroma. Lemon, banana, and clove flavours with a lemony, lightly acidic, and dry bitter finish. Light bodied, fizzy, but refreshing. I certainly wouldn’t complain if I had a locally made weizen like this in NS.

May 31, 2008 341ml bottle courtesy of Tommy84. Pours a very hazy orange-amber with almost zero head. Aroma is indeed highly of banana but also of unpleasant vinegar. Flavor is that of a typical stronger hefeweizen, toss in a little apricot and honey. A decent beer but not one that I’ll be reminicing of.

Apr 21, 2008 341ml bottle. Standard hefe aroma. Banana, clove, malted wheat. Predictable but inoffensive. Pours a hazy dark gold with plenty of sediment and a nice sized bright white head. Flavor is a little more aggressive and grainy than what I’m used to in a hefe. Some lemon zest tartness, bread dough. Mostly sweet with a toasty finish. Medium bodied with a mild astringent finish. Thanks Scott!

Apr 16, 2008 341ml bottle.
Pours a nice hazy amber orange with a small white head that fades to a small layer of foam. Smells like lemons, yeast, banana, coriander and some floral notes too. The sweet flavour of doughy wheat and spices finishes off on a lightly bitter and sugary taste that hangs around the back of the mouth for a while. Good stuff.

Oct 12, 2007 A hazy orange amber ale with a thin white head. A sweet banana solvent aroma with caramel and nuts. In mouth, a lightly sweet weizen with good cloves, a bit lighter than expected, with some unpleasant astringence in final. Bottle from Piscator32. Tasted Summer 2007.

Sep 16, 2007 Bottle via trade with piscator34. Colour is reddish-copper - much darker than I expect from a hefe - with a slight haze. Aroma is toasty and a bit fruity, with a faint hint of spice. Thin body. Flavour of caramel malt, notes of wheat and faint banana. Not really on style, but not bad.
