bluevegie (3004) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - APR 21, 2004
This was labelled as Hefe Weizen but I am assuming it is the same thing. Agree with the other raters, slightly hazy brown colour with a medium sized white head. Doughy aroma, banana taste with some cloves and malt.

Mads Langtved (2246) - Copenhagen K, DENMARK - APR 16, 2004
Brown, cloudy. Nice flavourful wheat with hints of banana? Quite easy to drink and no strong sickening yeast taste.

skortila (4166) - Baarn, NETHERLANDS - OCT 27, 2003
yeaty aroma and loads of banana. Some earthy, perhaps pepper smell too. Brown, cloudy appearance. Nice lasting head. Taste is almost pure banana, yeasty. Mild palate. Bit one-dimensional, but good. Underrated imo.

omhper (17478) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - SEP 19, 2003
Bottled. Muddy ornage brown. Vague yeasty aroma. Clean, mild an dlight bodied with a vague hint of banana. Rather unimpressive.

CEZ (393) - Milano, ITALY - JUN 19, 2003
Brownish colour, cloudy with sediments. Malt and yeast in the aroma; just a trace of toasted grain and toffee aroma and taste. Flavour is pleasantly sour, but otherwise mild. Medium body; goes down easily.

Oakes (10941) - Savusavu, FIJI ISLANDS - MAR 24, 2003
UPDATED: NOV 28, 2009 Bottle. Dark brown. Cloudy. Thick head. The aroma is slightly smokey, wheaty, chocolatey with light apple/pear fruitiness. The body is full, quite sweet with hints of yeast and apple. Rounded, balanced character.

kmeves (1098) - Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 13, 2003
Not a great German Wheat. Darker than most (almost brown) and less sediment. Frothy head. Nice clove/banana flavor. Spicy finish.

pivo (2540) - GERMANY - JAN 14, 2003
Toasted grain nose, clear brown color (odd for a wheat), and a frothy head. Toffee taste rule, almost no wheat character. Has a little charm to it, but it is not really wheat. I’ll take it if I have to.

YogiBeera (2435) - Hamburg, GERMANY - JAN 13, 2003
It seems like all the Staatliches Hofbräuhaus brews are not my taste. Light malty nose here. Amber color, little foamy head. Malty, yeasty - ripe banana taste. Thin - tastes more like a maltbeer.

Bov (8204) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - NOV 4, 2002
red-amber colour, nice head, deep wheat and banana aroma, sweet and flat with an earthy, short finish
