Opaque beige. Slightly wheaty, lightly fruity nose. Spicy, spritzy character. Wheaty towards the finish with a hint of spice. Decent example.

<b>Draught</b>. <i>At BeerBistro, 2007 Golden Tap Awards</i>. Pale, cloudy, slightly greenish yellow, with an average head. Didn’t care for that aroma - really, REALLY lemon-juice sour, but not in much of a good way, funky yeast and wheaty grain try to vie for attention, but just get buried. The taste was really solid, though - smooth wheaty grain, apple and lemon juice, soft lush yeast - really well done. Decent body for the style - seemed more a Belgian wit to me than a hefe - decently fruity and astringent, only mildly carbonated, dry, and it slipped off the palate a little to quickly, I thought, and no aftertaste. Clean, refreshing, and hardly any banana innit.

TFOB 2007. Draft. Hazy, light pastel yellow bdoy with a small foamy white head. &#40;3+&#41; Aroma is quite yeasty, with light notes of lemon zest. &#40;7+&#41; Zippy lemon zest in the flavour, with light notes of yeastiness and a very light bitterness. Flavour is on the mild side but is a rather decent example of a wheat beer. Average palate. Nice beer. +1 Over all for going organic as well.

Enjoyed at Victory Cafe on tap. The brewery has been expanding their choices- they can brew. Light yellow almost beige, with crowning head and carbonation bubbles. Light mouthfeel, a sugared down sourness. Above average carbonation. Wheat aroma. Quaffable. More of an American pale wheat than a hefe in my little opinion.
