3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft at the brewery. Fairly attractive pour (even if it was in a pint glass) of golden yellow with a pillowy white head. Aromas are mostly grass and a bit of clove, body comes around as a bit woody and harsh for a hefe. Good carbonation and very drinkable.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours golden from tap. This is one of the clearest Hefeweizens I’ve yet had. A bit of banana on the nose. The notes are a bit more muted on the tongue. Clean finisher.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Slightly hazy pour. Nose is fairly fruity. Light clove with a distinct pale malt sweetness. Light astringency on the finish. Soft wheaty palate. By-the-number, but okay.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
tap @ Church - musty, cloves and estery banana. Yogurt and nuts. Hazy orange pour, no head. Smooth caramel, wet sweet malts, finishes with a nice hoppy bite.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Lacked proper glassware, fairly light in flavor and body, nice traditional ode
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at Church on our way to RBSG. Pours a gently hazy browned yellow amber with a medium sized white head. Light sulfur, bananas and yeast, wheat. Smooth. Lots of banana flavors. Quite smooth. Banana and oxidization on the finish.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
This poured a cloudy darker yellow color with a larger white head. Aroma was lots of yeast and wheat, with hints of clove and banana. Flavor was very spice, with a lot of yeast notes and light banana and some coriander too. Decent German Hefe.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Strangely clear yellow color with an aroma of banana and spice. Flavor has banana and clove as well as wheat, but overall lacks depth and character.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
On tap. Hazy golden-orange in the glass with minimal head, odd for a hefeweizen. Clove and banana on the nose, with a stale smell to go along with it. Clove and wheat in the mouth, but again an overall stale flavor, like the beer is too old. Low carbonation, again odd for a hefeweizen. Poor representation of the style, and I generally enjoy this type.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Tap @ brewpub: Clear, yellow gold with typical yeasty banana aroma as well as a little bit of rubber. It has a crisp flavor with a light finish. Not too bad.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the Church. Golden to pale orange but almost non-existent cloudiness, which was odd for a hefe. Aroma was wheat, banana, citrus, and clove. Flavor was similar, definitely tasted like a hefe, with very noteable fruitiness and spice. Crisp effervescence. Not bad overall.
