Draught at the brewpub
Muddy blond color, dreadfully served with a wedge of orange. Saline water aroma. Light flavor, weak wheat, with a peculiar, light hazelnut touch; low bitterness. Easy but not totally bad.

Nik925 (599) - California, USA - SEP 2, 2008
On tap at the brewpub, great upfront wheat flavor. Strong citrus notes, minimal yeast flavors (esp for the style). Lacking the metal flavors that come with poorly made hefes, this one was good but not amazing.
