adrian910ss (1032), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 1, 2008 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 !!! BassmanSK (1), , Wisconsin, USA does not count Sep 29, 2008 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.

Nice Bavarian Hefeweizen. A tad on the sweet side, but great flavors overall, quite to style. robinvboyer (1052), Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, Canada Sep 25, 2008 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!!
Boutip (1815), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Sep 25, 2008 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.
