Jul 6, 2006 Updated: Jul 22, 2006The aroma smells like urine (yep, that’s right pee), bananas, yeast, spices, malt, and citrus. The appearance is deep cloudy gold with a large head. The taste is really good it has a lot of bananas, coriander, malt, and cloves. The palate is thin but smooth and fitting for a Hefeweizen. Overall I like it a lot; it has a greeat taste. But something needs to be done about the aroma!

Jun 23, 2006 Sour and yeasty, very wheaty, as expected, with some generally pleasant maltiness. Slightly crisp and refreshing, but thin-flavored. Some banana esters makes this one a little hard love.

Jun 23, 2006 Bottle. This pours a golden colour with a decent head. Scents of banana and citrus on ths nose. This is a cross between an American Wheat and a Hefeweizen. it has the banana flavors, but is not creamy and smooth. Crisp, with some sour undertones (lemon). In comparison to other US attempts, this is very good but in comparison to the style it is slightly better than average. Thanks to wohlfs for the bottle.

Jun 12, 2006 Label this a berliner weisse, and I’m approaching the rating differently, but as a self-advertised hefe, this thing is just putrid, so putrid, I can’t even thank doulos for passing it along. The pour was golden-yellow-orange with a decent head (not nearly as rich as a real hefe) and lots of lemon chunky looking sedimentation. Aroma was clovey, not much banana, and lots of lemon citrus. The flavor was lemon citrus, American wheaty funny/funky, and did I mention tart and lactic lemon? Tart and acidic mouthfeel, nasty aftertaste. This thing probably got a bad bottling and pick up some wild bacteria for the bottle conditioning. A terrible hefe.

May 13, 2006 At the brewery. Unique in that it had a farmhouse aroma and saison taste. Seems to be an accident of he batch according to the bartender yet I liked it. Good yeasty taste and medium body. Did not have creaminess I would expect of the style and left a dry finish.

May 9, 2006 bottled, many thanks to pjk33. pale yellow and a bit hazy from being lugged around. big banana yeast aroma. delicate texture and some delicious meringue and lemon cheesecake flavours. i dunno how these guys get it so right when most american brewers get hefeweizens so wrong

May 7, 2006 Smells like yeast and lemons - tastes like bananas and band-aids - not much else to say.
