50cl Can from REWE Germany. Hazy yellow orange colour, thick white head. Aroma of some yeast and banana. Flavour is light fruity, mainly banana, yeast, some wheat. Texture is very watery, light bodied. Not as bad as I expected.

Can 50cl, a cloudy yellow beer with good white head. Nose is low and malt. Aroma is dry, cereal like, body is low and metallic, watery, less malt notes, low wheat notes too.

500ml can: poured hazy yellow orange with a big white head. Slight banana aroma and a little pepper. Flavor is a little weak with some banana and pepper. This is at room teperature so it should be a little colder. Not a bad beer at all but not a great hefe for sure.

500 ml can in Germany. I had braced myself for the worst with this one. Luckly I was surprised to find this a standard level Weizen. Nothing great or anything but drinkable.It is a fine looking Weizen when poured for sure. It is a bit thin and lacks both flavor and character but not bad either.

50cl Can from REWE Dusseldorf. Hazy blond colour typical of a weiss beer. Not bad but not great

Ein Dosenweizen, das nach dem Äußeren der Dose zu urteilen nicht unbedingt als Bier zu erkennen ist. Aber warum nicht? Rasant verschwindet die Schaumkrone im Testglas. Die Farbe ist jedoch annehmbar. Das Aroma hat außer etwas Fruchtigem nicht viel zu bieten. Der Geschmack wird von einer unangenehmen Seifigkeit dominiert, der Abgang ist kaum vorhanden. Darüber hinaus ist das 5,0 Original Weizen ein wässriges und dünnes Gebräu ohne Rückgrat. Test vom 19.10.2006, Gebinde: Dose

(can) pours a hazy yellow colour with a frothy white head. aroma of heavy clove and wheat, lactic acid and peanuts. flavour is mostly wheat, with a hint of banana and medicinal phenolics. medium-bodied with fizzy carbonation.

Hazy light easy-drinking wheat beer with a little too bland taste and wheat aroma.

0,5 lieter blik. Smaak is niet een echte weizen.

First American rating!

Courtesy Degarth. Canned. Very light yellow body with a small, quickly vanishing white head. Nose of wheat, grass, earthy notes, grains and malts. Flavor much the same, very muted however. Light bodied, bland palate. Finish is wheaty and medium length, along with some grains and malts. Forgettable but not offensive.
