12oz bottle. Poured a cloudy yellow-orange color with a fluffy white head. Pretty standard hefe aroma with banana, light clove, and a bit of yeasty bread dough. Delicately sweet and light to medium bodied. Ample carbonation. Tasted of banana, clove, and a hint of caramel. There was also a pleasant fresh cereal grain note that extended into the finish. Nice.

Jun 23, 2008 The least favorite beer I had here - it had the look, though - very hazy gold/orange, with a frothy, lasting head - lemony aroma, with strong yeasty qualities - bready, yeasty, earthy - understated banana flavor (which is good in my book) - a bit of grainy character - the flavors wheat usually imparts weren’t that easy to notice - light and easy drinking, just lacking a bit of character.

May 30, 2008 When I opened this beer, the aroma of wheat and honey poured out immediately. After the initial taste I noticed the banana undertones which were very pleasent. This is a classic german style wheat beer, it wasn’t as sweet however.

Oct 27, 2007 Nice Hefe -- loads of flavor, with banana, coriander and hops flavors and aroma mingling nicely. Not quite sure why this is a winter seasonal (unless it’s winter wheat?), but it’s pretty good.

Sep 17, 2007 12oz bottle-A cloudy orange body with a small white head which has an aroma of wheat, yeast, and coriander. Taste the same. A great tasting weizen just like a true hefe. A great German hefe from a US brewery.
