Serve in Weizen

Cloudy light orange / yellow color with a creamy white head. Sweet wheat aroma. Flavor of wheat and grain.

Bottle. Slighty foggy white-yellow body with a small white head. The aroma has fruity banana, cheese, and minerals. Lively, prickly carbonation. The flavour is missing a lot of the typical fruity characteristics of the style and therefore doesn’t really intrigue me. Sampled at the Københavnske Øldage 2006 on May 20, 2006.

Pale bright cloudy gold, thin fizzy head. Thin, faint citric nose, grapefruit. Watery body. Citric front but off bland hefe character. Smooth finish.

Pours hazy orange with a thick white head. Typical clove and citrus in aroma. Flavour is quite fruite with strong notes of yeast. Some ham is present. Hints of pears and banana in finish.

It pours a just barely opaque amber with generous head. I am not a big wheat bear fan but this is truly subtle and tasty.

Blah. Very boring beer. Weak yellow pour with a big head. Aroma is stale hay. No banana or cloves. Taste is musty yeast with grass. Too expensive to try again.

Pours slowly with a thick 2-inch head that’s completely connoseur-beard white. Weak aroma in the glass, it was stronger when still in the bottle. The colour is light - like 2 weeks old lemons. The flavour lacks wheat(!) but has a strong acidity. The hops are fresh in the aftertaste.

Wheay banana aroma? Cloudish pee-yellow with a big head. Taste starts okay. Pretty watery w/a wheaty background characters that come in late. Okay esp. if sharing w/the ladies. Gets too banany at the end - ick.
