12oz bottle acquired in trade with JCapriotti (thanks!). Poured a medium and slightly hazy golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of bananas, cloves, and citrus. Tastes of wheat, cloves, and bananas. On the thinner side.

Hazy blonde wth a creamy white head, and a pleasant aroma of bubble gum and cloves. In mouth, less remarkable, bananas and some lactic acid/lemon. Creamy in mouth and in general very palatable. Would be nice to compare with Blanche de Chambly.

Uncapping it is like peeling open a banana. Thick rich white head covering a cloudy golden body with a good German yeasty profile. Slighty sour and fairly malty, but it seems to lack that special thickness or finish that its foreign competitors have. It’s very drinkable though, and relatively unexpensive.

Not a bad hefeweizen for Huber. It has the classic look, a hazy straw body with a good sized head. The aroma is full of banana and bubblegum with a touch of clove. Lively, spritzy mouthfeel. The flavor is a soft wheat with banana, clove, and a light lemon twist in the finish. I like it, and frankly I’m surprised, considering what’s been brewed under The Berghoff name the past few years. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?

Bottle Lemon, orange, banana and light clove aroma. Cloudy light orange-yellow color with small head. Tart lemon, banana, and wheat malt flavor with moderate acidity and carbonation. Nice Hefe - on the light side but still pretty good.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cloudy golden hue with little head and some lacing. Aroma hints of wheat, lemongrass, spice, banana, and musty gym towels. Initial taste is very grainy and spicey, followed up by fleshy fruit and finished by a mild acidic nature. This thin to medium-bodied brew has a lovely mouthfeel. A good version of a Hefe, only knock is that it's a little too much banana and not enough citrus.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Deep hazy golden color with a white head that dissipated to just a few bubbles along the rim. Heavy aromas of wheat, light cloves and bananas and yeast. Flavors of malt and bananas. Much better than I remember. A bit heavy in the phenols in the finish that makes me feel like I've been chewing on banana bubble gum.
