does not count crankball (6), Butler, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 20, 2001
Rastacouere (5409), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 8, 2008 Objectively speaking:
A very mild weizen with tart sourdough notes.
I like:
Soft wheatiness. Appealing banana notes. Still refreshing.
I dislike:
Totally clear… Relying heavily on the breadiness and paired with the sourness, it’s less than more pleasant to me. Bubblegum notes feel out of place among the total cleanliness.
General_Gao (2579), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Oct 4, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. Poured a hazy yellow-orange color. The head was white and left some lace behind on the glass. Fairly typical hefe nose including the likes of banana, clove, and a splash of lemon. There was more banana than clove. Light to medium bodied with some delicate sweetness up front. Clove and banana were fairly evenly matched in the flavor and were accompanied by subdued citrus and caramel notes. Pretty standard and good. 17thfloor (728), Chicago, Illinois, USA Sep 17, 2008 [On tap at Pub] Pours a hazy orange with little head. Big clove and coriander aroma, spicy and sweet. Flavor is sweet, light orange and coriander. Dry short finish. Crisp carbonation but watery mouthful . A well made beer but very generic hefe. SQNfan (480), Wheaton, Illinois, USA Sep 7, 2008 On tap at the brewpub: An average hefe with the banana and clove noticable but lacking depth especailly in the mouth. Glouglouburp (2006), Montreal, Quebec, Canada May 21, 2008 In short: A typical bu thinner and less flavourful Hefe than average. Very bland.
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Clear yellow body with a long-lasting white head
In long: Body is too thin, Some wheat/hay but not enough. Very light banana flavour. Almost no tartness. Soft carbonation. Some dry grass in the finish almost saves the day but it’s too little too late, this is a very bland beer. And to think that the night before I was served one of the best hefe ever at Piece Brewery just a few miles up. This one is as memorable as a hockey game on tv… when your team is not playing, and you don’t like hockey, and you’re sitting back to the tv and the tv is turned off.
