Commercial Description:
Brewed at Black Oak Brewery by the original Denison's brewmaster. Using a traditional special yeast, resulting in beer bursting with flavour that may surprise you, reminiscent of bananas, cloves and lemons. Served unfiltered with its natural yeast and proteins. Was brewed at Denison's on Victoria Street (as Denison's Weizen) until early 2003. Denison's has its own site up: http://www.denisons.ca

Brilliant yellow pour with a deep head. The notes of citrus and banana are showing well. The corriander shows on the plaate with the banana and the nice balanced mildly acidic finish.

On tap at BeerBistro in Toronto. Canary yellow with a big poofy white head. There’s way more lemon flavors than banana. Has an odd burnt rubber latex aroma.

On tap @ The BeerBistro Toronto: Bright but cloudy yellow colour. Banana, cloves and fresh friut radiate from the glass. Powerful malty, yeasty flavours are harmoniously set against a citrussy spine. Complex and quaffable. Superb!

On tap at Castle on King. Orangey-yellow, quite cloudy. Appearance reminded me of pineapple juice. Small head. Strong aroma of slightly overripe bananas (it also reminds me a bit of a dental dam -- but perhaps I’ve encountered an exquisitely aromatic dental dam at some point during my youth.) Some clove is also present. The beer rolls through the mouth in a manner that is somehow notable. Orange peel is prevalent. I’m reminded of wild rice at the end of each sip. Sweet and loads of citrus. Banana also joins the flavour as it warms. Medium bodied. Leaves a faint, sodium-like aftertaste. "Bombastic" comes to mind. Bombastic and delicious.

On tap - Beer Bistro: Perhaps it was the candle light, but this was a beautiful, glowing yellow-orange body, simply superb looking, a pure frothy white head. Nose of yeast and wheat, some banana in there too. A delightful wheat flavour, fruit (bananas, papaya) and yeast, just lovely. This summer will be awesome, sitting on a patio or in a beergarden (or on a certain ratebeerians balcony) supping a Denisons Weissbier.

Had this one on tap at Volo. Poured slightly cloudy yellow color with a slight orangness to it. Aroma was spicy and citrusy. Mostly a lemon aroma in this one. This was real easy to drink and one of the best wheat beers ive had.
