Picked up a single 12-oz bottle from Three Cellars in St Francis, Wisconsin. Pours a semi-clear golden blonde brew with a fast dissolving white head that dissipates to a fine film and no ring. Thin lacing occurs on side of glass. Aroma of green vegetables, some light yeast, white grain with wheat with a touch of cloves. Taste is lightly sweet, light to medium bodied with flavors of white bread malt, wheat, some artificial banana, lemon zest and a touch of dried beets. Finish has a mild banana and lemon zest aftertaste that leaves behind some white pepper and a touch of bubble gum. Character is more like a Crystalweizen than a hefe.

Jun 9, 2008 12oz bottle. Smelled a bit like a hefe in that there was some dried banana and a hint of citrus. I also got whiffs of paper mache and biscuity malt. Poured a hazy yellow-light orange color. Head was fizzy, white, and reduced in less than 30 seconds to a thin ring. Carbonation was on the excessive side. Slightly tart up front with lots of citrus. There was also distinct banana and a dash of clove. Body was on the lighter end of the spectrum. This was too watery for my liking and the hefe flavors, while present, were somewhat dilute or stale overall.

Jun 8, 2008 This beer pours a hazey, lazy, crazy golden body with a thin white head that slides down the glass like an elevator. the little lacing that does appear dissipates rather quickly. Aromas of honey and wheat, with a pleasent fruity taste of bannanas and orange.
