Commercial Description:
With its amber-mahogany coloring and streaked with fine top-fermented yeast, this beer has a fine, persistent head that adheres well to the glass. It is pleasantly fruity with a typical top-fermented smell, an aroma of clove and nutmeg apple tantalizes the nose. On the tongue it is fresh, clean, full-bodied, harmonious and well-balanced. It finishes with a light, delicate taste of bitters leaving behind a sour impression.

Kind of ugly yellow-brown, tight white foam, dry, musty, yeasty aroma. Light citrus. Taste is more oranges, wheat, yeasty must.

Spicy bread bouquet and lack of he common banana aroma. Appearance is as the description says "amber-mahogany" and not the dulled golden you’d expect from a Hefeweizen. Flavour also is more spicy and bready than the fruity. This is such a hefeweizen in every way but different in every way from all the others. Very interesting and very, very good.

500ml Bottle: Pours clean with a nice head of foam. Strong scent of caramel. Yeast taste but smooth and very tasty. I would buy this again.

Smells very fresh, malt and banana. Dark, very dark for a hefeweizen, not too much head. Tastes exactly as it smells, about medium malt darkness in the flavour and some banana and a slight cirtusy bit of flavour. Very, very smooth, a bit of residue the aftertaste but not at all unpleasant. Quite nice, I have to rate the Hacker Schoor just a bit nicer though.

Brown coloured beer with large white head and lots of carbonation. Hoppy sweet aroma. Full creamy palate. Finish is sweet yeasty ending dry fruity (bit like bannas). An excellent beer to drink with the cheese "Brie".

Pours a dark cloudy amber with a slight off white fizzy head. Aromas of banana, nut meg, coriander, and some yeast. Many aromas carry to the flavor with a sort of banana upbringing, then some spice like coriander and slight nut meg, with a little yeasty undertone. Every swig leaves you ready for that next one with a slight sour/dry finish. Slightly sweet. Pretty good hefe.

500mL bottle - pours an opaque dark golden with a thin off-white head. Aroma is bananas. Flavour is bananas, yeast and heavy citrus. Very good wheat beer.

Cloudy, dark orange colour. Dense head. Quite a malty flavour for a Hefe. Finish is a bit sweet but remains crisp and refreshing.
