Bottled 500ml. -from Bier Imperium, Vienna. Murky orange coloured, medium to big sized off-white head, banana in the nose. Sweet malty, very fruity (banana is dominant) and light spicy with short sweetish finish. Drinkable but all in all nothing special here.

500ml bottle. Aroma is slightly oat and yeast. Appearance is cloudy orange with a small white head (fast decreasing). Taste is slightly sour and light sweet, almost like vinegar. Overall very drinkable beer.

Nice stable white head. Served in a very nice glass. Brown gold color. Taste, a little bit of banana, caramel and a little bit smoky. Tyically palate of a Weizen.

Bottle, many thanks to Quack-Duck. Dark golden color with huge long lasting white head. Strong banana aroma. Taste, surprisingly not so sweet, fruity, some caramel notes, bitter hops. Bitter sweet finish, more on bitter side. Good Weizen.

Bottle 50 cl. Hazy orangey golden with a creamy off-white head. Banana and a little butter in the nose. Medium body, sweet banana, yeast and again a little butter. Has a vague tartness in the finish. 301011

Flavour is moderate to light light heavy sweet with a average to long duration, candy. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20111030]

500 ml flip-top bottle picked up in Germany. This pours a very nice peach hazy orange color with a slighlty tinted orange white head. Wonderful looking. Aroma is malty acidy fruit and bananas. Taste is smooth creamy light fruit. As the others have said somewhat sweet. A very different Weisse. Palate is mellow and ends sweet. I liked it more than they did but it lacks something. Still a very good Weisse.

Picked up a couple of bottles based on the recommendation of the owner at Bier Imperium, Wien. Looks like a standard hazy golden Weizen, though the aroma was a bit subdued. The taste was similar, very smooth, but nothing really fantastic. I did like the fact that it was a bit sweeter than some competitors, but it needs to pack a bit more of a punch...

Bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado (huge thanks!)
Poured a full, lovely misty peachy body, a slightly off white head that went away slowly, Chalky nose, banana. Sweet, chalky lactic taste, mostly overripe banana but not bad, on the sweet side for a weizen but still drinkable.
