From tap at Rixdorf brewpub, sold as Rixdorfer Hefeweizen, yet served in a Julius Echter glass - rebadged beer according to the owner. Pours hazy orange/yellow with a lacing white head. Dry estery and fruity aroma. Flavouris dry estery with a mild banana note and a more subdued orange fruity note. Ends dry an wheaty. Classic wheatbeer (not my style).

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a cloudy golden with a tall, dense, white head. Weak aroma of yeast. Light-bodied with vague notes of banana and citrus - and then nothing much more. A not too interesting Hefe. 120207

Bottled. Hazy yellow colour, mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is wheat, banana, some nutmeg, toffee and mild citrus fruity notes. Flavour is toffee, some grains, mild nutmeg, mild citrus as well as quite much yeasty notes. Big time toffeeish and wheaty notes.

Draught at Rixdorfer Brauhaus in Berlin as Rixdorfer Weissbier. Cloudy golden coloured with a small white head. Sweet aroma of bananas, yeast, spices and bread. Sweet flavour of bananas, yeast, spices and hops. Spicy and hoppy finish.

Draught at BBF07. Weak banana aroma. Also some banana in the flavour, otherwise nothing much. Quite standard Weizen, flawless but boring.

Bottle @ Odense Tasting, May 2012. Pours cloudy golden with a creamy white head and lacings. Balanced and smooth nose and flavor. Banana and wheat and mild yeast. Good.

Draught at d.b.a., NYC
Cloudy blond color; creamy head. The aroma has some malt. Soft taste, some malt and sweetness, sweet nuts, light fruitness (banana and more). Light but elegant.

(Bottle) Pours a hazy yellow with an incredible long lasting, thick head with an abundance of tiny protein enriched bubbles. The taste really blends with the aroma of a good German Hefeweizen.
