Draft. Pours the color of pulp-included grapefruit juice, with a great aroma with banana, clove, bubblegum, and hopcitrus. The flavor starts citric, then thrown the bubblegum, banana, and spices at you, in that order (at leats that was the order for my tongue). Smooth and crisp at the finish, this one got growlered by me.

Very authentic hefeweizen. Color is cloudy orange. Aroma is of yeast and fruit. The flavor is classic hefe, with a full complement of vainilla, banana and cloves flavor. Squarely in the classic German style.

Solid opaque orange-yellow with the classical banana aromas. Nice 'chunky' and yeasty beer with fruity flavors. It's a pretty authentic to Deutsch weizens.

Draft @ Gibraltar in Lancaster...Hazy golden hue with a pronounced banana/wheat nose. Fruit, cloves and yeast on the palate. Perfect balance, moderate white head and ideally carbonated. Just great on a hot day...An excellent hefe!!!

Sample at the brewpub. Completely opaque, hazy gold, bit of head. Wonderful aroma that is banana-dominant but also contains hints of apple, caramel and cloves. Soft but chewy body...bananas, apples, lemons...thick and full. Definitely one of the best American hefes I’ve sampled, top-notch.
