Psytron (503) - Turku, FINLAND - JUL 16, 2011
Looks like basic weizen. Aroma of banana and tropical fruits. Decent weizen which should be much more abundant.

austone (1062) - Turku; Pori, FINLAND - JUL 12, 2009
Tap @ brewpub. Turbid yellow, cloudy and creamy pale head. Sweet, vanilla like aroma, wheat, little orange, fresh banana and clean yeast. Fresh flavor with some spritzy citric fruits, sweetness, raw banana and yeastiness. Mild alcohol notes, sugary bubblegum and limefruits in the finish. The sweetness makes it just a bit cloying. Medium bodied, slick and oily moufhfeel. t’s a real schoolbook brew.

raymondwave (931) - FINLAND - AUG 9, 2008
Tap at Koulu. Yellow orange, only hazy (could be cloudier) with a thick white head. Nose is mainly yeasty, not much esters. Flavor is yeasty, sour, thin, not much wheat or esters here either. Somewhat nasty sourness. A disappointing wheat which is almost closer to a helles or kölsch, maybe they need to shake the keg once in a while.

esox (686) - Oulu, FINLAND - MAY 22, 2008
Draught at Koulu. Brownish orange with small firm head. Yeasty and sweet malty flavor with banana and some citrus fruits. Quite sweet flavor with not much yeasty elements. Light to medium bodied and a bit thin. Nice fruity hefeweizen without over dominating banana ester. Not very interesting though.

FatPhil (5970) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - MAY 5, 2008
Keg (Koulu, Turku)
Orange, small tight head. Banana and toffee aroma. Quite fizzy palate, sharp carbonation, quite harsh. Very toffee-ey taste, banana too. Too fizzy, but otherwise would be very refreshing. Very authentic hefeweizen.
