Draught at the brewpub
Muddy pale blond color. Light Looza banana and spicy aroma. The mouthfeel is round enough, but no interesting flavor, just some cloves.

Lightly hazy, golden with minimal head. Aroma Lots of banana and clove in teh nose by the flavour is thinner and more lager like. Sweeter without a lot of wheat flavour.

Banana is prominent in the doughy wheat aroma. Opaque golden yellow body is topped by a low white head that recedes to a thin partial cover. Banana is very strong in the flavour with plenty of doughy wheat but unfortunately it comes across as rather sweet. Spices are subdued in the aftertaste. Medium body is creamy in texture with carbonation that is quite low for the style. Sampled on tap at the brewpub (and thankfully I remembered to order it with no lemon).

Cloudy gold, minimal white head.Yeasty banana nose.. Somewhat cloying spicy yeat flavor, strong banana overtones

UPDATED: JUN 30, 2007 Ack! NFL! Blonde, slight haze, thick head. Heavy clove, lemon, banana. Lemon! Oh fuck me. Flavour is banana, clove and it’s a bit grainy. Light finish, slight wheat tartness. OK, hefe, wrong glass and uh...no lemon, please.

The latest incarnation of Dix Hefe has a new yeast. This sucker is tart, wheaty, with a decent malt background. It’s still not terribly complex and the tartness was a bit off-putting at first. But after the second pint I kind of warmed up to it. Light banana and spice. 6-4-7-3-13 = 3.3

UPDATED: OCT 19, 2005 Very cloudy, golden-yellow beer. Thick, fluffy white head. Aroma of banana, wheat, light spice/bubble gum. Flavour is full-bodied, wheaty, bubble gum, and strong banana. Watery body. Light acidity. Finish is a bit watery. Ok, but not a great example.
