Midnight Sun Old Whiskers Hefeweizen

22oz bottle, courtesy of TomDecapolis, post-BCTC festivities. Thanks, Tom! Pours a hazy, bright pitty grapefruit color; thin off-white head with patchy lacing. Lots of bananas, soft cloves, and toasty Belgian sugars; slightly sticky, sweet hefe nose. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: chewy bananas, cloves, and white pepper upfront; solid carbonation; lively presence in the mouth, mild acidity, and a touch of lightly acidic citrus; solid hefeweizen overall. Medium finish: toasty, bready, and light citrus; nicely toasty end.

Bottle shared by TomDecapolis. Thanks! Clovely, cinnamon spice aroma with some wheat. Taste is robust wheat, a bit sweet, but having a very thin, overcarbonated body.

Thanks to Tom for sharing this one. Poured a cloudy gold color with a medium sized white head. Aroma of wheat, cloves, with some fruity esters. Tastes of light banana, cloves, mild other spices. Not bad..

Thanks to Tomdecapolis for sharing. Pours a nice hazy yellowish gold with an ok lasting head. Aroma is phenolic and estery- but not quite in balance, both are a bit overdone- clovey and pepery almost getting to a wit, but lot sof banana an dfruity esters as well- light doughy almost citris-like wheat malts. Light grassy flavor with more wheat and a slick phenolic mouthfeel- even some plasticy hints as well. Pretty off the mark for a traditional German Hefe. A rare miss for MS.

hazy gold with a frothy white head. grainy/fruity aroma. smooth and spicy, with a hint of banana ending a little dry
