Bottled. Hazy pale orange colour with small white head. Aroma is caramel, fruity & flowery hops and grass. Also some candy and mild notes of rye. Flavour is candy, sugar, some hops and rather sweetish wheat notes. Aftertaste is fruity hops, wheat and mild notes of honey.

(12 oz bottle) hazy medium gold with smallish white head. Aroma of wet hay, cloves. Flavor is cloves, yeast, grain, maybe some citrus, some hay/grassy hops. Unlike others I’m not getting the banana. Decent body.

Light, cloudy gold pour with a medium sized foamy head. Light aroma of grain, yeast and banana. Grain and citrus flavor, with a slightly bitter finish. Highly drinkable and refreshing, though not the best example of the style.

Poured golden with a small white head. The nose was cloves, spices, and bananas.Flavor was bland.Nothing really popped here.Finished off leaving a strange aftertaste in my mouth.

Hazed gold, fizzy white head. Soft vanilla citrus nose lays on a wheaty banana clove base. Crisp citric banana spice flavors round to a light bitter ending. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Decent and pretty refreshing...

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a pint glass, swirled last 3oz and dumped in glass. Aroma is dominated by orange and banana, very pleasing. Appearance? It’s a cloudy hefe! Dark straw in color. Mouthfeel is nice with a high levels of carbonation as appropriate to style. Poured a wonderful head that dissipated in about a minute. Overall taste is decent. I like a little more orange tatse in my hefes. It tatses like it could be fermented slightly higher in temperature to bring this out. Overall, a very nice american hefe, especially for national distribution in a bottle.
