3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20From the bottle. Pale straw gold with no head to speak of. A bit cloudy but not as much as I expected. Aroma of yeast, wheat and banana. Thin and lightly carbonated with a taste of citrus and wheat.
Refreshing and very good for the price.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Classic hefe aromas of banana and spicy yeast. Hazed light yellow color. Taste is a nice sweetness, not over the top, and is balanced by a yeasty zest. Nice and crisp like a hefe should be. The best beer on tap at Berghoff’s that day, although the matter of some debate within the group.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
355ml bottle pours a hazy golden color with a 2 finger white head that has decent retention eventually settling to some respectable lacing. Aroma is banana and cloves with some cereal grains and light hops. Taste is malty sweet with the banana and cloves and a citrusy hop bitterness in the finish. Light bodied and moderately carbonated. The best of the Berghoff brews that I have tried to date.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottled@Monks Café, Stockholm. Hazy golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is tomatosauce-pizza-spices as well as some wheat and caramel. Flavour is being very similar with some herbal notes. Probably rather old bottle (drank during summer 2010).
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
This is a Bavarian style wheat beer, unfiltered--and mistakenly served with a slice of lemon (no friggin’ fruit, please!)--and represents a pretty fair effort for a contract brewer. It’s certainly much better than it had been a few years before.
Brewed only using pale barley and wheat malt, it’s pale straw in color and pretty full in body, with plenty of banana and clove overtones to be expected. The finish is balanced and clean, with only the lingering yeasty esters traditional to the style.

Sampled at Berghoff brewery on Adams St. downtown Chicago. This brew was okay. I’m not very fond of the Hafe Weizen as I feel they need more fruit and less grainy. Aroma was of grains, banana, grassy. The appearance is of a yellow haze. Frothy head, appearance was great! Overall, not a fan, but will have again if I see it on tap somewhere..
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draught from the restaurant. Cloudy, a little bit less acidic than I like my hefe’s. OK.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pale yellow and slightly hazy. Abit of that sweet aroma, but mostly lacking. Taste is watered down lemonade. Citrus and sour. Bad aftertaste. Nicht gut.

Gift from my Wisconsin hook up. Thanks Jamie. Hazy golden color with mild citrus aroma followed by a more dominant wheat. A clove and banana taste thin in body but not bad.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
I’ve never been a huge fan of their stuff anyway, but this is one of my least favorite hefes for sure.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Grass and ketchup aromas. Appearance is slightly murky golden yellow. Flavors of corn, corn syrup, sharp tomatoey flavors. Odd combination of sweet and dry. Slight chocolaty note on the duration with chalkiness. Thin with almost no head retention. Unusual.
