2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Golden-amber colour. Thick head even a lemon can’t kill. Ha ha! Screw you, lemon. Dry. Lightly toasty and husky...not much fruitiness if any. Very slight wheat character. Surprisingly dull given the original German inspiration behind this beer. Competent but boring.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Aroma of pale malt and citrus. Hazed orange color, doesn’t appear to be a wheat ale. Flavor of lemon and spice, fairly malty as well. Almost more like an American pale ale. Lighter body, lacking in effervescence.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. Hazy golden orange. Almost no head. The aroma is sweet and vaguely citric. This drinks with a lot more sweetness than traditional hefeweizens, and with nary a hint of any yeast either. That said, it’s clean and easy to drink. (#4577, 4/29/2012)
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours a cloudy golden color. Smell is very mild, some wheat. Taste is also mild, some wheat and lemon. Overall not bad, but a little subdued for the style.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
12oz bottle: pours a clear pale golden with a thin-lacing white head. Has a semi-sweet slightly grainy nose with some sharp noble hoppy notes. Starts with average fullness and mild wheaty sweetness with a touch of oxidation and grassy hop flavor before a drier herbal bitter finish. Doesn’t have any of the Bavarian yeasty character I enjoy in hefeweizens.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Clouded deep yellow color with a small white head.Nose is clove, wheat and citrus. The taste is deseptive a little richer than most hefeweizen’s. Pretty good overall and worth shot. This one will do well in the summer months.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours out a hazy orange with a finger of yellowish white head. Nose is weak and wheaty with and odd combination of lemon and spices. The taste is sweet and mildly wheated with a mild clove and coriander spice. overall, just okay.

Bottle,
this Hefe had a hazy orange pour, it looked like a cream sickle orange, and made a two finger faint off-white head, this beer was too hazy
to see through but I did see bubbles flowing up the sides of the glass, and it left spots and long fingers of lacing on the sides of the glass,
the aromas were faint lemon like citrus with wheat, faint banana and peach fruit, a little grain and grain sweetness,
there were flavors of wheat, faint banana, bread and grain, flavors were on the bland side,
it had a mouth feel that was a little less than medium,
a so-so Hefe drinker.
