Can 0,5ltr: An fine decent thirstquenching Hefeweizen from Lidl supermarkets. Hazy colour its slightly sweet and have citric taste.

Tasted yesterday from canned, 50 cl. (bought @ Lidl) Hazy yellow color, with a large white head. Aroma herbs, bit sweet and yeast. Medium body. Taste sweet, fruity, some herbs, and little bitter finish.

UPDATED: JAN 29, 2009 Nice cloudy golden colur and medium head. Aroma is moderate yeasty, banana. Flavour is rather weak, bit wheaty, some citrus. Very dry palate.

Dark yellow colored with cloudy appearance. Medium sized white head. Yeasty aroma with mild banana, some berries also present. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is also yeasty with some banana too, somehow watery palate. Aftertaste is yeasty still with some biting note. Not too special.

Can, 50cl. Probably at the lower end of hefeweiss enjoyment. Not terrific, yet pours nice and wheaty. Bearable.

Can, 500 ml, 11.5P
Appearance: Pours metalic, bright yellowish, citrusy - lemony to very mild orange body colour. Head is initially medium and that is quite surprisingly for Weissbier, white in colour and frothy to foamy, quite quickly decreasing in the end disappearing. head colour is white and there is no lacing. Carbonation of body is visually medium.
Aroma: Aroma is very simple and not complex but very nice. First of all you can feel wheat, than nuts, especially peanuts, some yeast, banana and orange, refreshing citruses like lime , aroma is very nice and pronounced, quite lively and intensive.
Flavour: Aromatic perfumy - flowery hoppy nose comes at first, some slight bitterness and tangy impression on palate, some old rubber accent, aftertaste is flat and neutral, graphite, accidic, salty, quite fresh, easy going, mineral nose.
Palate: Mineral nose and strong carbonation on palate, slight bitterness, finish feel is slightly chalky and mineral, quite nice, gentle.

Canned 50cl, Hazy yellow coloured beer with lots of carbonation and a large white head. Sweet, strange herby citric aroma. Medium palate. Finish is little bitter-sweet with again a rather strange citrus herby and fruity ending. Not my kind of weizen.

Bottle at home. Hazy, light yellow with a large head, fine lacings. Aroma moderate malty (wheat, citrus, coriander). Flavor light sweet and acidic/bitter. Light body, watery. Fine price, but it lacks body!
