12oz bottle. Bours quite dark - a murky bronze. Strong banana aroma light spices and a little citrus. Quite sweet - probably too much really, spices and quite a sugary finish. Reasonable but not my cuppa tea.

Dec 23, 2009 Flaske: Flot klassisk hvede udseende med et kæmpe skumhoved. Dejlig duft af banan og gær. Smagen er igen klassisk hvede, men hvad der trækker en smule ned på overall er en mærkelig bismag der kommer engang imellem. Svær at placere, men gør at øllen lige bliver det mindre drikbar.

Dec 18, 2009 Weak effort from the otherwise reliable Left Hand Brewing Co. Next to nothing in terms of cloudiness with a weak, citrus like taste. Expect much better from this fine brewery.

Dec 3, 2009 12 oz as part of a mixed witbier 6 for my wife. Nose is pretty nice, expected orange peel and spiciness, but a nice hint of banana and peppery strawberries. Taste is pretty weak - light wheat and banana upfront, some orange peel, then some sugary sweetness that takes away from the decent start. A little watery.

Nov 16, 2009 Bottle at Paticks , Kristiansand. Golden- orange colour with an off-white head. Aroma is dry, banana, orange. Flavour is dry, banana, orange, wheat, hop, citrus. Medium body. OK beer, but could be more fuzzy and more flavour.

Nov 14, 2009 Serving date: 2009-04-16. Served in hefeweizen glass.
Yellow color, orange hues. Uneven haze in the liquid. Big white creamy head that settles just a little too fast. Some chunky lacings.
The aroma is mostly fruity - bananas, orange peel and peach. Wheat and white bread. Faint spices.
A rather week taste. Mostly sweet with some bananas and oranges. Plenty of wheat flavors and toast. Slightly spicy in the middle (cloves, white pepper). The finish is short, minimally bitter and has some spices, minerals and grassy hops.
Moderate body, low carbonation that could have been slightly more aggressive.
An average beer. It smells and tastes okay. Easy to drink, but it falls short compared to the many great German beers of similar styles.

Nov 13, 2009 13-NOV-2009, bottle @home.
Very light hazy white/gold colour with almost white dissappearing head.
Wisse-like nose with some spices.
Taste is citrus, banana, spices, but in a much too thin package. Medium carbonation, a little to citrussour, and a little too thin.
Certainly no match for the better German examples.
