Commercial Description:
Editor's note: Yes, the bottle calls it a hefeweizen. The beer, however, is brewed with a (fairly hefty) portion of lemongrass, which contributes a significant aroma and flavor. Thus we have deemed it a Spice/herb/vegetable and not a German Hefeweizen, which should be free from adjuncts (other than hops).

Clear but deepish yellow pour below a white head. Citrus and hops in the aroma. Bland citrus flavor with some spices coming though. Bitter finish.

This is a light amber in color. Aroma is weak spice. Taste is a mild citrus/yeast combination. Somewhat carbinated.

Sampler pack. Pretty clear pour, yellow with a thin head. Aroma of banana, clove and citrus. Medium carbonation. Thin body. Taste is primarily banana with a lot of grass and earthy hops. It’s ok.

Bottle 08’ fomr mix 12 pack that told me to vote. Agitated bottle as advised and the pour was a ahzy straw color. Smells of bananas and faint spice. Flavor is gingerbread, light banana, wheat,a nd faint citrus. Boring, thin watery body, lacking balance and has no real hook that makes me want to drink more of it.

Sampled at the 2008 Music City Brewers Fest. Yellow with a white head that is has some lasting. Wheat and spice aroma. The flavor is much the same with some lemon backing. Light body but need some more.

Yellowish in color with a white, watery looking head. Aroma was earthy/musty. This did not taste like a hefe.. The lemongrass dominated and I didn’t taste any banana or clove. The mouthfeel was the best part about the beer.

A dark orange apperance with a white head. The aroma contains some oranges and bananas. The flavor is somewhat sour with a bready presence. More bananas present in the flavor. The palate is rather thin as well. Overall not much to this one.
