500ml bottle (William K, Helsinki)
Cloudy deep orange, healthy white head. Sweet estery aroma - not just the usual banana - quite cerealy - a little weetabix. Quite lively in the mouth, but a lovely creaminess smothers the tongue very quickly. Creamy body, slight vanilla-fudge taste, light grains. Not outstanding in any way, but very good in every way. Very pleasant hoppy finish too.

Jun 7, 2008 50cl bottle. Pours a lovely hazy orange with a full white head & lacings. Aroma & taste is banana, wheat & citrus. Nice balance between sweet & sour. Round & soft mouthfeel! Great Hefeweizen!

May 22, 2008 500ml Bottle (Poseidon, Helsinki) - Hazy golden in colour with a hint of orange. Spicy, grainy aroma with a hint of banana. Banana also features in the smooth taste along with a hint of spice. Goes down very well indeed.

May 4, 2008 (Bottled) Opaque orange with a smallish, white head. Felt like some diacetyl after pouring, but it vanished quickly, leaving a typical weizen aroma with some vanilla hints - but came back again after a few minutes. A bit stuffy, straightforward flavor of some dried-fruity wheat and hints of coriander. Light to medium-bodied with medium carbonation. Seemed like this bottle was not at its best.
