Fresh citrusy bright aroma with several notes of fruits especially lemons, green apples, honey dew and banana.
Fresh, subtle, solid and refreshing wheat beer. An americanized hefeweizen with the usual banana, clove and nutmeg flavors but also some hints of lemon, ripe pear and apple. DTB (51), South Philly, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2006 This beer came a pale cloudy cider color that fades to gold near the bottom of the glass. The head consists of a wide collar of small white bubbles.
Smells of sweet honey and creamy wheat with some orange citrus. There’s also a smooth milky yeast that seems to ties this all together.
Tastes of doughy wheat and oats with an awesome, milky banana and clove presence. This is followed by a snap of citrus that helps dry the flavors out and helps this finish with a little clove and a pasty wheat.
The mouth feel is light to medium bodied and not too heavy at all.
This one’s a dead ringer for a Bavarian Weitzen. Well done! Slick (1958), Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA Aug 30, 2004 I’m going to do this one in two parts since my glass is to small for the whole bomber to go into,so it without yeast first and with yeast poured in second.
Nice clear straw color,small white head that faded quickly leaving little behind.The aroma was wheaty with a slight cerealish quality coming through a little fruit hint like maybe a mild citrus.The flavor is a mild wheat with some bannana and spice,somewhat sweet at first then a change to a cerealish flavor and a slight hop presence.Finishing up fairly clean with a mild bannana after taste.Sofar not bad,now for part two.
Oh yeah now theres what i’m looking for.Cloudy straw color,the head stays much the same as before,with the aroma coming on just a bit stronger with a little more bannana and citrus.The flavor also comes on just a bit stronger in the fruit arena and an addition of a slight yeasty character but nothing more that would really add to the brews over all rating,just strengthens whats it’s going to get.A very nice brew over all and well worth getting a few more due to it’s easy drinkability and over all summer appeal.
DerBiermeister (384), Birmingham, Alabama, USA May 27, 2008 Quite tasty, kind of salty like (from Betty’s sweat), good with food and pleasant and light. KAggie97 (2023), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA Oct 16, 2005 Bottle. Pours a rich gold with yellow highlights... great carbonation, pleasing presentation. Aroma is faint hops and citrus. Pleasing aroma! Flavor is clove, banana, and bubblegum. Pretty good. Palate is subtle, but it does the job. A great beer.
