Pours Chustnut brown with GIANT pillowy, foamy head. Yeasty wheat aromas on the nose, as well as subtle hints of banana, vanilla. Smooth, rounded taste, bready/wheaty on the palate, with definate notes of banana. Finishes well with a litght echo of spicey pepper at the end.

Aroma is nice and strong and malty, some hints of yeast. Pours an interesting orangy-brown amber with a fairly thick and persistent head. Flavor is well-rounded, malty and wheaty with a strong undertone of lemon. Very smooth and refreshing, one of the best hefe-weisses I have ever tried.
