3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Hazy orange brown, same as the wood at the table in the brewpub. Medium-full roast aroma. Seems strongly spiced, doesn’t the description at the bar say it’s Belgian? Now I can’t remember and it’s not in my notes. Initially toasted wheat, strong yeast character and seems to be spiced with coriander. I hope I’m not way off. As I drink it, it softens into gentle citrus and a bit of smoky driftwood.

A lightly hazed golden weizen with a thin white head. In aroma, intense bananas, cloves and aromatic esters, intense and nice. In mouth, a light wheat malt with intense cloves, light aniseed, thinner than expected but very good. On tap at brewpub, Sept. 12 2009.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tap@Brewpub. Strong banana aroma with some lemon. Hazy, dark yellow colour, white head, good lace. Sweetish, banana, hint of grapefruit, bitter for a Weizen. Refreshing, high drinkability, not really special but more than OK.

Great wheat flavor shines through constantly. Great carbonation. Yeast flavors a bit too mild. Strong cereal flavors. A decent hefe.

Not included in the Sampler, so I ordered a glass after I tried all the rest. It was a good decision as this is a decent Hefeweizen.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tap at the brewpub. I suggest this is more of a wheat beer than a hefe. Eh. Hazy golden amber with a creamy white head. Mild malt/wheat aroma. Medium body; mild carbonation. Flavor is light wheat/malt with a little Belgian yeast/spice. Hints of fruit. Very refreshing. Might be some citrus, but they stuck a lemon on it. So?
