Commercial Description:
If you dream of wheat this brew will get your toes tapping. Since 1995 we have brewed Bavarian style wheat beers exclusively for the same great state that grows and malts our own Wisconsin wheat. In a world full of posers this is a true hefe-weizen naturally 100% bottle fermented and hazy.

Expect this beer to cascade effervescent into your glass. The rich spicy clove and cinnamon notes will greet your nose while sweet fruit and wheat kisses your lips.

Lick the foam from your mouth and admit sometimes you just gotta get up and dance.

12 oz bottle courtesy of Todd. Pours a cloudy honey yellow gold with a medium sized white head. Aroma of bubble gum, spicy cloves, lemon, banana and honey. One of the best aromas ever for this style. Taste of spicy clove, banana, lemon and honeysuckle. Superb !!!

Bottle into weizen: aroma is strong of spicy clove and banana with some lemon; appearance is cloudy golden yellow with a pillowy white head that leaves light lacing throughout the entire glass; flavor is strong of banana, clove, light bubblegum and lemon. As good as it gets for me anytime. Going to buy as bunch as I can get my hands on before they stop brewing it for the year.

great hefe pour, cloudy and golden with a huge beige head. Great aroma of banana’s cloves, bubblegum, a touch of lemon, and some cinnamon. Wow, incredible!! The flavor is intense, huge banana and clove esters. Wicked balanced wheat flavour, i love this beer!!

Bottle: Poured a hazy yellow color wheat with a medium foamy head with average retention and some minimal lacing. Aroma of cloves are dominating with some discernable wheat and overall a quite big malt base. Taste is a mix between some cloves and some big malt base and is not as close to the style as I was expecting. Either there is too much wheat and the beer is veering toward a wheat wine or maybe there is too much barley but I thought the malt base was too sweet for the style and didn’t provide enough refreshment. Also, at the risk of sounding too traditional, I would have like if more banana ester would have showed. Definitely not the best weizen out there and probably over rated and not the best beer from a very good brewer.
