kwoeltje (1180), Manchester, Missouri, USA Jun 16, 2008 (draught) hazy pale yellow with white head. Little aroma with a hint of banana. Flavor was mild with vanilla and wheat, a little banana. vyvvy (1582), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA Apr 18, 2008 Poured hazy yellow / orange with a white head. The aroma has some rich wheatiness, but leaves the banana aspects behind. Medium body with soft carbonation that is quite pleasing. The taste starts off with citric flavors, lots of smoothness and some richness. The finish has the slightest hint of banana esters, but not much. The finish mainly shows some hops that don’t normal show in this style. I wouldn’t say this is complex tasting at all, but I enjoyed it. sneagrams3 (1342), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Apr 14, 2008 Tasted 4/10/08. Sampler from the brewpub. Hazy with a golden yellow hue. White webbed head. Tart and bitter palate. Acidic and peppery. Crisp with citrus esters. Tasty. MrRain (293), O’Fallon, Illinois, USA Apr 5, 2008 Draft at the brewery in a tumbler. This unfiltered hefeweizen really didn’t taste like a German wheat, more like an American wheat. It pours cloudy and tangerine-colored. the aroma is light and full of citrus. There is no head and no lacing. The body is medium in heaviness. The flavors consist of chewing gum and grapefruit. It is highly carbonated (why no head?) The finish is medium dry. A nice twist on this one is that they asked if I wanted it at room temperature and I took them up on the offer.
