vadavid (131), Fredericksburg, Virginia, USA Dec 26, 2007 Pours a cloudy, reddish-gold color with surprisingly rapidly vanishing head. Aroma is sweet, with faint clove an banana noyes. Taste is wheaty, banana, fruits, slightly spicy at the end.
jgb9348 (1826), Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA Sep 5, 2008 Great hazy golden coloured body with a very thin white head - albeit fairly still looking. Not super hazy, but some suspension noticeable. Aroma of yeast, wheat, lemons, honey, flowers and a faint twinge of corn. Medium-bodied; Chewy yeastie and wheatie mouthful with a good potent lemony kick. Aftertaste shows a lot of wheat, some corn and a very mild sweetness. Overall, a pretty good wheat - definitely worth trying if you can find it! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased at Whole Foods in Arlington (Clarendon), Virginia on 18-August-2008, sampled on 05-September-2008. jcwattsrugger (3942), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Aug 10, 2008 22oz bottle-pours a white head and cloudy yellow color. Aroma is clove, banana, some wheat. Taste is clove, banana, some wheat. Nice. taffurs888 (98), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 21, 2008 May not be "the best Hefe I’ve ever tried" put it was good. Poured from a cool label growler and a great blend of banana with a slight bubble gum vibe of fruit. Great wheat after taste and very light in body, with the right amount of carbonation. radagast83 (1046), Springfield, Virginia, USA Sep 3, 2007 At Capital Ale House, Innsbrook. Apparently I got the last of what was in the tap, so I’m not sure if this accurately depicts the beverage I drank or not. Overall it was a decent American wheat beer. Clove, and lemon was mellow, and unfortunately the slice of lemon they served with it overpowered the brew itself. It was a mostly clear amber color, with just a little haziness to it. I’ll probably have to try it again when it is in better supply.
