curly (549), Nashville, Tennessee, USA May 21, 2009 Pours hazy gold with a thick white head. Aroma is wheat, spice and banana. Taste is yeast, lemon, spice and faint wheat. Very clean and crisp. KnutAlbert (3111), Oslo, Norway May 12, 2009 Bottle in Rome.
Quite spicy aroma, some pepper.
Full, almost heavy body. Bread, banana, lemon. Not that good, really. Not refreshing enough. jgb9348 (2492), Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA May 11, 2009 Hazy deep amber coloured body with a thinnish white head and a meaty texture. Aroma of strong wheat, yeast, bread, lemons and a bit of toffee and banana sweetness. Medium-bodied; Assertive acidic quality up front with citrus and yeast coming out most. Wheat dominates in the middle with some coriander seed and curacao freshness. Aftertaste is somewhat muted with wheat and a bit of sweetness near the end - the alcohol is hidden well. Overall, a good beer, not stellar, but definitely nice to try! I sampled this 50 cL bottle purchased at German Gourmet in Falls Church, Virginia on 09-May-2009, sampled a day later at home in Washington. MitchWayne (264), Kokkola, Finland Apr 24, 2009 Wheaty, yeasty and estery hefe, good for the summertime and not bad for the style. I approve of it. arrogantb (695), Denver, Colorado, USA Apr 13, 2009 500ml bottle $3. Very nice looking golden, cloudy color, served in a pilsener glass. The smell was cloves and bubblegum with extra yeastiness. The taste starts out very nice with a strong bubblegum component but then finishes with a buttered popcorn flavor that I do not care for at all (diacetyl?).

Reviewed on: 04-13-2009 19:18:29 Quack-Duck (3132), Bodensee/Schwarzwald, Germany Apr 3, 2009 bottle. cloudy yellow colour, large white head, fruity nose. Medium to full-bodied, malty-wheaty background with fruity flavours, banana mainly. Finishes with some citrusy hoppy flavours on top of the yeasty-wheaty flavours. Rciesla (3515), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Mar 30, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy golden body with a white head. Spices, wheat, and bread. Caramel malt, lemon grass and banana. GG (1613), NorCal, California, USA Mar 19, 2009 I’ve always seen Kapuziner beers on the shelves, but they’ve always came in those mini-keg’s and those are rarely bought. So while checking out the beers at BevMo, I see that they are now carrying the pint bottles so I bought all the styles they had on hand. In the mood for a nice hefe, this was the one I pulled out first.
The beer pours out a light golden color, slightly hazy with a huge 3 finger fluffy head which melted away to a scant 1/2 finger head. Aroma of cloves, a bit of bananas and lemongrass. Flavored carried strong citrusy notes, biscuity and bananas. Soft and velvety mouthfeel. The finish reminded me in ways of a cheap white wine. Just okay.
