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.

Another great example of a bavarian white beer. I have had better form the region, but still a decent beer for the rate. Quite drinkable.

Hazy yellow-orange pour with tremendous head response. Pasty scent with banana-hefe scent. Little spice on the nose though. Has a nice natural citrus flavor of orange. Some dry wheaty elements can also be tasted. Much better than others I have tried. Even better with an orange slice.

500 ml bottle in USA. Gldlen color with an off white head. Aroma was top banana even for a Hefe. A superior Hefe very smooth. One of the best.

From the bottle, pours a hazy yellow with a thin white head. Aroma is quite nicely strongly bananas. Like banana pudding. Taste is very similar. There’s a bit of sourness in the aftertaste that prevents a better rating, but still a pretty good beer.

Bottle @ Metro Billiards. 5.1%. Cloudy yellow pour with a frothy white foam. Aroma is sweet, citrusy. Taste is very sweet and dry, quite impressive. An excellent Hefeweizen.
