Bottle. A hazed golden yellow color with a white head. Much lighter in color than I would have expected. It has a malty flavor while making you think it will have a rich hefe citrus character. Yet it mocks you with none of the best qualities of either a hefe or bock. A strong banana aroma with a corn flavor.

Hazy yellow with a white head.
Sourish aroma with spicy notes.
Pretty sweet, malty and vinous flavour. Marzipan.

Sep 9, 2008 Bottle; color was amber with a medium sized off white head. Aroma of fruit, bread, spice, earth and musty wheat. Alot of fruit esters in the flavor. Slightly sweet; bready, spicy and earthy in the finish. A solid, but unremarkable brew.

Jul 17, 2008 Pours cloudy orange with a small but lasting head. Aroma is of tangerines. I pick up a certain sour vinegar note everyone once in a while. Not overwhelming but not pleasant. Flavor is very mild, slight caramel flavor but really not much of anything. Light sweetness. Body is medium and creamy. Surprisingly light and drinkable for a 7.5% brew.

Jul 13, 2008 Poured from tap at Marin Brew Breast Fest a clear blond with a thin white head and lacking carbonation. This beer had very little aroma with maybe a hint of grassy hay and something like canned beans. The flavor is dull with some cloying sweetness, lots of malt, and a very minor light wheat tang. I’m not a fan of this one. Misses much of what I like in a weizen or strong ale. Would skip next time.

Jul 3, 2008 Bottle from Ledgers in Berkeley, CA. Poured a murky yellow and had a sweet spicy smell to it. Citrus taste that almost tasted sour. Just a little bit odd so I had to knock it down a little. Average brew.

Jul 2, 2008 Bottle from Ledgers in Berkeley, CA. This beer had an identity crisis in my mouth. I’ve had a Hefe, and I’ve had a Dopple. This one was a straight mixture of both, and that’s about it. And, they didn’t mix very well. Still, I have to give it style points. Nice try.

Dec 25, 2007 Has an usual taste but I like it. Tastes like a toned down IPA. Seems like a beer that would be good for drinking to get drunk. Lacks the real flavor of the other beers I have tasted.
