Pours murky amber with a large, lasting head. Nose shows doughy wheat, lemons, clove. Pretty standard for the style. Same story with the flavours, doughy wheat, cloves. However a vegetal and grainy character becomes apparent in the finish. Carbonation is too high.

330ml bottle. This beer is all foam initially from the second that you pour it into the glass. The foam slowly settles to give way to a hazy light golden colour. Lots of sweet banana aromas fill the nose while the fllavour is a bit light on. Finishes clean in the mouth.

Good pour big white head strong carbonation orange gold pour aromas banana coriander banana great on the nose clove yeast candy note flavour green banana clove smooth but bright tasting coriander mild medium bitter medium very good crispness orange peel bitter yeast gives out a light creaminess even vanilla finish bright spicy yeast aftertaste hoppy bitter fruit very likeable weizen

Bottle. Hazy copper with a white head that needs a little encouragement to reach two inches. Wheaty aroma with lemon, cloves, banana, apple. Taste is a mixture of sweet and sour with a real wheaty/ lemony tang followed by mild but vibrant spices. Best non-German bottled hefe I’ve had by some distance. Very pricey but really good.

Unusual aroma for a weizen. I’m usually overwhelmed by the wheat, but this has serious honey overtones. Nice, curt flavour, a little sour, quite filling. Nice.

One of the best beers I’ve had. A true wheat beer with truly unique and rich flavours. You must try this beer!
