3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12 bottle. Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aromas of banana, clove, wheat. Flavors of banana, clove, sweet malts, and wheat. Nice thick american hefe. I actually found this to be quite tasty.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
This beer is really pretty decent, but still nothing much to it. I like some more complexity.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Straight from the bottle. Aroma is sweet wheat and some clove. Taste is sweet with a touch of spice. Wheat, clove, banana fruitiness, and a nice tartness. Body is pretty light, and hella easy to drink. A unique offering that isn’t as banana forward was many american hefeweizens.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Lemon zest in the aroma and a rather clear gold-yellow in appearance. The flavor is of bananas and yeast. A relatively subtle hefeweizen, not near the best but still pretty good.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a cloudy straw yellow with a 1 finger creamy white head. Aroma of banana, clove and german yeast. Taste is a touch tart and citrusy/lemon up front, but mutes to a slight bready flavor. Dry finish.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Light gold pour with minimal head. Aroma of clove and citrus. Taste is highly carbonated, mild citrus and bread. Good.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
On tap at the B & L in New Ulm. This stuff was as fresh as I could get it.
Served in a Weizen Glass
Pours a nice 1 and 1/2 finger creamy white full head. Very good lace. The lace really make it look nice in the glass. Color is an extremely hazy pale orange juice look.
Aroma: The obvious banana and cloves. Very sweet and fruity. Light bready malts. A very good representation of the syle.
Taste: Bananas, some nuts, clove, very fruity. Bready malts. Pretty good.
Mouthfeel: Way to crisp. Beer seems to be overcarbonated. Medium bodied. A tad smooth.
Overall, this is one damn good representation of a hefeweizen. I am not trying to give it good ratings, just because it is my hometown brewery, but when this stuff is fresh, it is ridiculously amazing. I think it deserves way more than a B. I could drink this all summer long. I will definitely be getting more of this.
Serving type: on-tap

3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap. Very hazy orange pour, little carbonation and a light orange aroma. Flavor was creamy orange, some banana and finished light and refreshing. Not complex, but really refreshing and good summer beer.
