On tap at the brewpub. Sort of bland heavily carbonated. Bitter but lacking spice or fruitiness to make it interesting. Very average.

mmmbeer (1154) - Austin, Texas, USA - JUL 12, 2012
12 oz. bottle served in shaker- poured an ever so slightly turbid dulled copper color, white ring for a head, aroma of clove, yeast, and hard water. Hits the mouth with a low medium body, malt is kind of in the back seat, hard clove in the middle, finish is somewhat lacking. Hmmm...

Pour from bottle. Hazy, dark yellow. Too much banana for my taste. A little too heavy on the palate for a wheat beer.

12 oz bottle. Pours nine golden in colour, with nice fine frothy head that leaves tonnes of lacing. Nice banana aroma, some wheat, and similar taste. Pretty good hefe!

12oz bottle from The Beer Depot in Ann Arbor, MI. Pours a cloudy, golden-orange colored body with an inch thick, dense and foamy, white head that collapses slowly and leaves a moderate, soapy lacing. Aroma is grainy wheats with a light sweetness as well as a decent clove, banana, and light citrus. Flavor is similar. Lightly sweetened, grainy wheats up front with some banana, clove, a light bubblegum, and a touch of citrus. Finishes clean and dry with a bit of an increased clove before leaving a medium length aftertaste. Medium body and a higher carbonation. Overall, a decent hefe. Easy drinking and well balanced. Nothing special, but not bad.

adnielsen (6152) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - NOV 16, 2011
Bottle in Detroit. Cloudy, yellow-orange appearance with a small white head. Orange citrusy, moderate banana and clove, somewhat spicy, wheat malty aroma. Tangy, slightly citrusy tart, mildly spicy, light to moderate banana and clove flavor. Not a fan of the tangy quality.

Bottle. Banana, citrus, bread aroma. Hazy golden with a small white head. Lemon, spice, and a slightly funky wheat malt flavor. Light carbonated body
