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.

From a 500ml bottle--Poured a slightly clouded, but mostly clear deep golden straw color with a fat, snowy two-finger head. Aroma of spicy clove and banana with mild vanilla notes. Smooth, lush, creamy mouth feel. Flavor of spicy bananas and cloves with a little hint of sweet apples, cherries and vanilla. Chewy and full-bodied. THIS is what a hefe should be!

Bottle from John’s Grocery (Iowa City, IA). Poured into my Warsteiner mug. Pours a rich hazy gold that looks really carbonated. Head is amazingly rich and white. Smells like a clove and banana. Taste is deep and rich, a wonderful banana dominated hefe that has a very pleasant sweetness, almost with vague notes of candy or taffy sweetness. Smooth finish that leaves me refreshed. One of the best Hefes around.

Thank you Masn/g2b.dk! It’s a hazy, golden beer with a huge, nice, white head. The aroma has notes of clove, wheat and banana. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of clove, wheat and banana. The body is full, and it’s harmonic and nice! 2550

Beautiful pour with a rocky head. The yeast and what make a delicious taste, sweet, almost cookie-like. This is what I want in a hefe.

This is what I remember from Germany. A little sweet fruit and yeast make this one great for a summer time treat.
