Floback (333), Naples, Florida, USA Aug 25, 2007 Pours a hazy orange with an enclosed white rim and a small white head that reduces to nothing. Strong yeasty and creamy wheat on the nose. I also picked up some surprising robustness in the back of the scent; almost a frappucino-like aroma. Tastes include white rice, cream-of-wheat hot cereal, banana, some bubblegum, and white chocolate chip. Lively carbonation and medium/full body. Good, if forgettable. MoDog (909), Griffith, Indiana, USA Aug 23, 2007 Poured from a 500ml bottle into a weizen glass. This hefeweizen poured a tradional cloudy, golden color with a fizzy, off-white head that slowly faded away. Some very faint lace was left around the glass. The aroma of this beer was made up of grassy lemon, wheat malt, with some light banana notes. The flavor consisted of very faint spice and banana notes, and also some light citrus. The mouthfeel was light-bodied and very crisp. Almost champagne like as mentioned in the description. This was a nice hefe, but the flavor was a bit boring and more restrained than I would have hoped for. Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Aug 23, 2007 Dark brown colored, medium sized yellow head. Strong sweet banana in aroma, mildly grainy that makes some diference to lighter weizens. Medium bodied. Flavor is strongly sweet also with banana, yeast and grains come up too. Sweetness still in aftertaste, too sweet for my taste. thepilferer (23), walnut creek, California, USA Aug 22, 2007 Aroma is spicy and yeasty. Poured a hazy gold color with about a half-inch head. Tastes of citrus, yeast, cloves. Bubbly, but not overwhelmingly so. Very smooth, with almost no aftertaste. My favorite hefe so far. hayduke (1619), Eureka, California, USA Aug 22, 2007 From a 500 ml bottle purchased in Salt Lake City at the State Liquor Store this poured a very attractive cloudy golden color with a fantastic fluffy white head that hung on forever. Nose is banana and wheat and floral. Nice clean mouthfeel. Flavor is very complex, with fruits, cloves, and yeast. Great finish for a hefe, and good to the last drop. Best hefe ever. ilovedarkbeer (1326), Dallas, Texas, USA Aug 21, 2007 Pretty good hefe. Pours a cloudy yellow color with a nice fluffy white head. Tastes like wheat and bananas and malt. Smooth finish and watery taste. Not too bad. Mike4686 (120), Bayonne, New Jersey, USA Aug 20, 2007 500ml bottle, beautiful golden straw color cloudy, nice big white head, smells of fruit, banana, lemon, apples, wheat, very tasty indeed, good carbonation, very good beer overall, better than a lot of others in the same style. joohefner (380), Isla Vista, California, USA Aug 14, 2007 nice gold with a big dense jelly head. strong aroma of bananas, lemons, and cloves with a light apple, hay, and flowers. medium light viscous body. the herbs and cloves really come through and the fruit is not as prominent, but definitely still there. some bread notes and a very smooth malt background. well rounded, smooth, very powerful but not heavy
