fidelis83 (709), Clinton, Iowa, USA Oct 16, 2008 Pours cloudy burnt orange with a 2 finger that fades quickly to a .5 finger and lasts. Aroma is yeast, banana, clove, lemon and a little wheaty/bready and sweet malt. Flavor is lots of sweet citrus, at first, a little pineapple, banana, spicy hops, and a little sweet bread. FInish is clean, with some cloves, wheatberry bread, and a little citrus. Body is medium with what is probably too much carbonation. Overall one of the best hefe’s though not my favorite style. FlyingSwine (169), Littleton, Colorado, USA Oct 2, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy gold, with a thin white head. No lacing. Aroma is light with a strong clove profile. A bit of banana and wheat. Flavor is a bit more pronounced with some grapefruit and lemon/lime finish. Palate is a bit fizzy, but heavier than I expected. Overall a very good Hefe. yngwie (4880), Kristiansand, Norway Sep 30, 2008 Bottle, shared by MissDolle. A hazy, orange beer with a white head. Banana and cloves in the aroma, with grains in the background. The aroma is much the same banana, cloves and grains, but also has a nice bitterness. Medium full, effervescent and dry. Cloves, fruit and bitterness in the finish. A really well-crafted hefeweizen, easy to drink, and refreshing.

Kudos. This is the world champion imho. folkbeer (3), Toronto, Ontario, Canada does not count Sep 18, 2008 Bottle at home. September 2008. Nice refreshing Heffe-weisse. Cloudy and orange with a nice frothy head up front that sadly and quickly vanished. Aromas of bananas and citrus fruit. Initial impression is full and sweet.
