Decent, but also "streamline" Weizen........ Geokkjer (256), Kristiansand, Norway Sep 27, 2009 Bottle.Pours cloudy yellow with an off-white head.Wheat and banana in the nose with some generic fruitiness.Flavor is wheat , banana and cloves.Thin and cidery body.O.k but one-dimensional hefeweizen. Beerlando (2284), Orlando, Florida, USA Sep 16, 2009 Draft in Hengelo, Netherlands. Pours a hazy, glowing, yellowish golden hue. A tall, foamy, snow white head settles slowly to a thin film, leaving a soapy wash to mostly rejoin the body. The aroma shows banana esters, lemon
zest, and doughy, bready yeast over a nearly neutral, lightly sweet wheat malt base. Flavors follow suit, light citrus essences peeking through a clean, glazed wheat grain base, with hints of banana. Thin and watery on the palate, with moderate carbonation, it’s easy to drink a ton of it. Decent hot weather session beer, but otherwise completely forgettable. bluevegie (2169), Perth, Australia Sep 7, 2009 Good size white head on a hazy yellow body. Aroma is of banana, same in the taste with just a hint of clove notes. yngwie (4880), Kristiansand, Norway Aug 25, 2009 Updated: Aug 30, 2009Bottle. A hazy, orange-yellow beer with an off-white head. Slightly sourish, wheaty nose with banana, some citrus and hops. The flavor is dominated by banana, with some cloves, wheat and a little bitterness. Too short finish, but appropriate bitterness. Medium body, effervescent. A decent hefe-weizen, nothing more. 090619 Fred82 (343), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Aug 18, 2009 33cl bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a big head that is short lived. Aroma is lots of wheat with hints of alcohol and citrus.Taste is a bit metallic with some wheat and alcohol. A bit watery. Small hints of banana. imdownthepub (5089), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Aug 17, 2009 Bottled, 500ml from Sainsburys in Folkestone. Hazed gold with white head. All the classic wheat beer flavours are apparant, banana, spice, clove, citrus but it all seems a bit forced and false. The flavours are heavy and dominant. I’m not over keen on this one.
