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.

fraternie (777) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JUL 18, 2001

Surprisingly dark for a wheat beer, and fairly bland overall. I liked it better than the Paulaner version of this style, mostly because the malt seemed to be balanced out better and because it seemed smoother, but I could use some stronger hops and more flavor.

Decent hefeweiss bordering on light dunkel if you ask me, oxymoron though that might be.

npdempse (933) - St. Petersburg, Florida, USA - JUN 29, 2001

Far from my favorite Weissbier. As has been mentioned, it’s really carbonated--the head was out of control. Further, it had a thin consistency, and was a bit on the bitter side.

daboskabouter (1470) - Fergus, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 19, 2001

UPDATED: MAR 11, 2003 Brown hazy appearance. Nose is citrusy with notes of other fruit. Also some banana was present. The body is oily with a slight spritzyness. Notes of citrus and banana abound, but nothing really making this beer a standout.

Just not that impressed. It got so built up to me as being phenomenal and didn’t quite deliver.
