skoisirius (570), Seattle, Washington, USA Sep 21, 2009 This ranks more in the lower end of the Bavarian hefes for me. Clove and banana flavors are present, but not profound. Lightly watery. Still a good beer. JulienHuxley (165), Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, Canada Sep 21, 2009 Bottle. Beautiful yellow pour with perfect creamy looking head. Very wheaty aroma, fresh bread, banana, yeast and orange here. Taste is mellow, solid carbonation yeasty, lots of orange and clove here. Good mouthfeel. The perfect litre after litre beer. decimator (41), Ontario, Canada Sep 19, 2009 500ml bottle poured into a Weizen glass. Poured a cloudy deep gold-orange color with a puffy 2" head which slowly dissipated. Very good lacing. Looks very appealing. Aroma of bananas, sugar and fresh baked bread with a little spice & citrus in the background. Flavor of malt sweetness, some citrus sourness, a bit of spiciness and a hint of hop bitterness. Good balance of flavors. Mouthfeel os smooth & creamy with tangy carbonation. Very drinkable and quite satisfying. One of my favorite Hefeweizens. NJJereme (261), Saint Petersburg, Florida, USA Sep 17, 2009 Bottle. Pours an opaque honey color with a pretty decent off-white head. Aromas of clove, banana, and malts and similar taste. A hint of bitterness on the finish. Medium bodied. An enjoyable brew. JRHBrew (216), Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada Sep 16, 2009 Excellent nose. Nice fruity spiciness that blends in harmony with the subtle malt character. The flavor is nearly identical to the nose. Simply splendid. patrickfannon (271), Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2009 Bottle. 12 oz. Pours light yellowish gold, with a thick white head. Aroma of wheat, hay, and citrus. Body is medium, with a decent finish, Interesting brew. wyzzywyz22 (754), Wirral, Merseyside, England Sep 14, 2009 Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. Poured a slightly hazy darkish yellow colour with a large dissipating rocky head. Aroma as anticipated was wheat, yeast, banana and a touch of clove. Clean, gently sweet flavour with more of the same elements of the aroma and some restrained spice and citrus . A very tidy exponent of the genre. AWS9 (221), Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Sep 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy orangey-gold. Small frothy head. Sharp, heavily citrus aroma. Carbonated citrus that disappears a little quickly. A bit of hops and barley at the start, but not really present throughout. Mainly citrus, orange, coriander, and a touch of spice. Missing the banana hint I like to find. Not bad, though it seems a little one (er, two?) dimensional for my taste in hefeweizens. Pretty disappointing to me.
