3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Nice slightly hazy golden coloured body with a very large white head. Tons of bubbles rise from the bottom - and a very nice unfiltered look to this one! Aroma of fresh wheat, yeast, lemons, bananas, coriander seed and some spice. Medium-bodied; Spicey flavour up front with some good wheat and yeast characteristics following soon behind. Aftertaste shows more of the wheat, some coriander seed and a very pleasant banana sweetness. Overall, a good beer - a nice wheat to have in the summertime and one to definitely sample if you can find it in or around Virginia. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Grape & Gourmet in Virginia Beach, Virginia on 17-September-2007.

Very nice Hefe. A great balance between the citris overtones and soft wheat sweetness. Perfect for summer. Nice job Legend.

Tap @ legend - lemon with notes of funk. Cloudy yellow with a thin white head. Some lacing on the glass, a bit thin palate wise.

Rating #29 for 2012
12oz bottle chilled out of a stem glass. Aroma of tropical fruits, bread, and spice. 1/2 inch head atop of a honey golden ale, consistent spotty lacing. Taste was of banana peel, spices, hints of mango, and light coffee finish. Medium carbonation finishes clean and tickles the nose slightly.

Pours a hazy yellow with an off-white head. Big whiffs of banana and malts. The taste is ripe banana and yeast with a good dose of malt to balance things out, but the banana definitely breaks through. I find this beer typically has too much banana for people for don’t like that in their beer. Personally one of my favorites from Legend.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a cloudy yellow, with a small off white head. Aroma of banana, clove, and lemons. Flavor is much of the same, with some yeast added, finishes clean. Very refreshing and one of Legend’s better offerings!

Decent, but the flavor is a little overly spiced. Hazy golden. Nice clovey banana-y aroma.
2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
The aroma is very inviting and true to the style with cloves, bananas, incense, and wheat. The appearance is cloudy gold with an average head for he style. The taste is not great with water and most of the elements from the aroma. The palate is thin but smooth. Overall a bit sub par but not bad.
3.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
I think this is Legends best offering. Nice heffe with a light and crisp body with just enough wheat to make it cloudy and cool.

Pours cloudy golden from bottle. A decent white head that leaves some lacing. Medium mouthfeel. Big estery notes on the tongue. Finishes clean. I think this is one of the better American hefe’s.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours hazy light amber with a small white head and a tiny amount of lacing. Aroma is of wheat, grass, malts and a little citrus. Nice wheat, citrus flavor with a malt backbone and a light hop finish.
