Yellow to orange, cloudy, decent head and lacing. Aroma is pepper, yeast, cloves, some banana. Taste wise it’s not spectacular but it’s still a pretty drinkable beer. There’s a good malt backbone, some yeast, cloves, banana, spices, wheat. Body is medium to light and pretty easy drinking. Overall it’s not bad at all but nothing real special either.

I thought this was pretty good in general, though lacked some complexity that would make it a higher quality beer. It goes down smooth and has a pleasant taste.

Wheat beer, orange and lemon peels with honey added. A little too citrusy for my tastes. Shiner TX

TomTron (296) - Aiken, South Carolina, USA - DEC 18, 2012
Pours a hazy orange with a thin white head. Aromas of yeast and some citrus. Taste is a bit bready with the yeast fully featured, and some citrus lingering but not much. Not a great beer but not bad, just a run of the mill hefe.

Grabbed a few sips from my wife’s glass. Hazy gold color with white head in the pint glass. Aroma of bread and citrus/clove yeast. Taste is light, small metalic finish. Decent.

Okay for a hefe. A bit heavy on the citrus flavoring. Weak bodied, pale gold appearance with a decent head.

Murky hefe gold with no lasting head. Nose was bland and yeasty. So was the flavor. Just yeasty and a little citrusy with some orange rind. Light and too rounded, no complexity.
