[bottle] Sweet malt, banana, and bubblegum aroma. Murky light brown under white foam that drops to wisps. Sweet and refreshing bubblegum and clove flavour with a little coriander and banana. The wheat sourness is gentle and goes nicely with a caramel and base malt flavour that is very pleasant, and not always present in this style. Medium body, moderate to medium carbonation, clean finish. Top tier Hefeweizen.

Swing-top bottle. Strong banana/peach and wheat malt aroma. Very cloudy yellow-amber color with moderate head. Sweet ripe banana, orange and wheat malt flavor. Low carbonation. Ester flavors dominate this beer.

Bottle 50cl. w. swing top.
Unclear hazy light to medium yellow orange color with a large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate to light light heavy yeasty, fruity, banana, clove. Flavor is moderate sweet, light light acidic and light bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is creamy, carbonation is soft. [20091002]

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts fine yeasty, a bit sourish, notes of apricot. Not bad, but nothing special!

Sorry for the german rating, but this is a lousy rating from my "newbie" time (2007-2009), and it’s not worth of being translated. I just added it for the statistics, and to complete my backlog!
Das Weizen im Glas ist ockergelb mit hoher, cremiger Krone. Der Geruch ist hefig sahnig süß, mit zarten Fruchtnuancen. Der Antrunk ist sehr sahnig cremig süß mit guter Hefenote. Selten habe ich so ein süßes Weizen getrunken. Zur Mitte kommt dann die Wende. Es wird würziger, etwas Nelke kommt durch, der unglaublich süße Ton schwächt sehr ab. Der Abgang zeigt sich ebenfalls würzig mit Nelken-Einschlag. Insgesamt doch sehr gelungen!
