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.

On tap - Capone’s - May 2008. Didn’t take a whole lot of descriptive notes on this one other than "tastes like banana pancakes". Floury and yeasty with a predominant banana flavor.

500 ml. Banana and lemon scent. Pale straw color (less orange than some) with super-fluff head. Champagne-like texture. Taste is on the dry side for the style. Mellow fruit and spice.

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.

Yeasty aroma, with a hint of spice and maybe a touch of banana. Initial taste is of slight clove and yeasty sweetness. Mouthfeel is excellent with a very smooth and full finish that tastes of banana, spice, slight fullness that remains.

Nice. Much more full tasting than I expected. Pretty thick for the style. Yeasty and peppery flavor. Lightly bitter finish. Highly drinkable and refreshing.

Pours a lightly hazy straw color with a foamy, snow white, well-retained head. Aromas showed fresh bananas, lemon chiffon, dry wheat grains, and light coriander spice. Some floral, spicy hop notes come through as well. Flavors are primarily the same, turning perhaps a bit more dry than the nose indicates. The wheat really asserts itself, with clean banana and light citrus providing highlights. Yeasty. Finishes super clean. Medium-light bodied and easy drinking, with moderate carbonation. Nothing special going on here, but it’s a nice, refreshing summertime brew. Not bad.
