Commercial Description:
Delicious lemon and vanilla scented wheat beer with yeast. This is an aristocratic beer with a champagne sparkle and a beautifully sustained head. With the pale color of mountain honey and tart refreshing palate, it is a "brut" beer with the delicious, complex fruitiness of extra-dry champagne. Bottle conditioned and top fermented, it is a benchmark for this style of beer. The nose is fruity-spicy, herbaceous with lots of flowers, and fruit. With such a creamy head, you can build miniature mountains that resemble the Alps. Pour slowly, fill the special weissbier glass half full and swirl the bottle on the table to put the yeast in suspension.

Draft @ Capone’s: This one poured a cloudy bright yellow with lots of head. The aroma was yeasty and lemony. The flavor was not a heavy as I thought. It was a bit yeasty and there were those lemons again. Overall, a decent Hefe but not the best I’ve ever had.

Bottle. Pours cloudy gold with a white head. Fruity sweet aroma of over ripe bananas and clove. The flavor is sweet banana, clove, and nutmeg. Very good.

500 ml bottle purchased at Beertopia in Omaha, Nebraska. Pour is slightly hazed yellow golden with a ton of carbonation bubbles. As the remainder of the bottle is poured, the beer is decidedly cloudier. There is a billowing 3 to 4 inch white head that crackles and pops as it falls, leaving behind a decent amount of lacing. Aroma is ripe sweet bananas, fresh cut hay and grainy wheat. Nice, soft, fresh nose. Also some nice floral aroma. Taste is the wheat, fresh and full, along with the banana and some clove taste that was not present initially in the nose. It all melds together quite nicely, and really typifies a solid German Hefe. Also some citrus present, which comes across with a really delicate sweetness that complements and accents the fresh grain and wheat. Palate is medium, fair amount of carbonation and a brief, clean finish. This was a nice one.

Hazy yellow body with a finger sized white head. Bananas and hate in the aroma. Flavor is annoyingly flat, but what there is is sweet like a banana chip with hints of wheat and yeast. It definitely doesn’t feel as carbonated as the standard hefeweizen, which troubles me mildly. Overall, an okay beer though.

Pours a light cloudy yellow with a active white head. Aroma of citrus and wheat. Flavor is yeast, wheat, and a touch of banana. The carbonation is very active and tingly on the tongue. Good refreshing hefe.

Pours a cloudy yellow, with a big white foamy head. A strong citrus smell with a hint of wheat. Fruityness of beer gives almost a wine type taste. Full bodied beer, Some sweetness and yeast in the taste, excellent hefeweizen
