Clear dark golden color not unlike MGD with a creamy white head. Yeasty, banana, estery, doughy aroma. Sharp acidic, fruity, spicy taste. Not as attractive looking as the hefe version but quite tasty.

(Bottle) Pale golden. Clear. Big white quickly disappearing head. Banana and some hops in nose. Lightish palate with lot of carbonation. Banana, bitterness and hint of salty liquorice in taste. Quite boring.

aroma is dry, fruity and wheat. good aroma, looks clear yellow, with small head, flavor is sweet, dry, wheat. nice weissbier, no macro touch here. a "real" weiss even though it is widely distributed.

One of the better hefe’s you can get in america. Very light on the palate light flavor of wheat a little too carbonated for me.

essa Kristallweizen alemã apresenta, bem nitida e pronunciadamente, os aromas clássicos das cervejas claras de trigo: banana e cravo. A espuma inicial, também clássica, tem aparência grande e irregular, de coloração branca. Há excelente formação de colarinho, com espuma de longa duração e corpo borbulhante, de tonalidade amarelo-médio. O sabor já não é tão clássico assim, deixando um pouco a desejar em relação à outros exemplares do estilo. Seu sabor inicial é levemente doce e ácido, tornando-se levemente amargo no final, de duração média. O paladar, também abaixo da média, é composto de corpo médio-leve (perceptivelmente mais rala que suas pares), textura aguada (até demais), carbonatação borbulhante e bem refrescante e final metálico.
