Pours golden wheat with very little white head. Nose comes off as a musty citrus. This tastes almost like a rotten wheat mixed with some orange and hops.

12 ounce bottle, drank outside in the Florida heat. Refreshing overall, flavors of orange peel, some yeast, and wheat. Overall nothing special, but refreshing to drink outside.

Pours a murky yellow color. Aroma of faint yeast and wheat. Taste is also very faint and nothing really stands out. Drinkability is good.

DrSilverworm (1041) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - APR 15, 2012
12oz bottle, best by 3/15/12. Half hazy golden color, thin white head that fades to near-minimal. Sort of sharp carbonation. Dry texture. Aroma is light lemon citrus and vanilla, but very lacking. Taste is light sweet, a bit of bitter. OK hefe.

Pours a hazy golden color with small white head. Aroma is sweet yeast with wheat and fruity notes. Taste is very similar with hints of banana. Light bodied.

Meh. Tastes like a lager. There is nothing "Hefe" about this at all. No banana, no orange, no coriander. Kind of flat. It’s drinkable, but a Blue Moon has more wheat than this beer. On the upside, I was so disappointed, I was moved to make this my first rate beer post :D

Pretty bland for a hefeweizen. Very disappointed in the lack of banana flavor. Drinkable but was expecting more.

Cloudy yellow with a thin head that quickly dissipated. The smell has many components that are not overpowering including grain, esters, and yeast. The taste is light and the wheat is noticeable.

Hazy yellow color with a white head. Aroma is sweet, wheat and a little citrus. Has less of a wheat flavor than most wheat beers , But a very nice unfiltered wheat beer, Good job Harpoon

Bottle. Develops a big white head that doesn’t last throughout the beer. Has the cloudy color of a hefe-weisen, but that cloudiness did not stand out to me like others I have had in the past. Had a bit of a caramel and yeast smell to me. Taste did not over power me at all, and the palate got nothing to show for this beer. Overall, a bland hefe-weisen, but I would drink it again.
