Jun 28, 2009 Pours a light, murky honey color with a 2-3 finger creamy white head. Aroma is wheat, cloves, banana, sourdough bread, lemon, bubblegum and a little pepper, basically all of the clasic hefe notes. Flavor is raw yeast, bubblegum, clove, lemon poppyseed bread, pepper and a little grass. Palate is thin, slightly chalky, dry throughout and has a very mild carbonation. A decent, but unremarkable hefe.

May 2, 2009 Minimal aroma, with nice appearance, smooth but not very memorable. Mild clove and banana undertones, extremely small head for a HefeWeizen

Pours a hazy yellow with a fluffy white head that does go away fairly quickly. There is a nice bubbliness to this one. The aroma is doughy and mildly skunky, there is a little fruitiness and some banana in the nose as well. The Favor is nicely fruity yeast and fairly sweet at first with a dry finish. The spiciness is fairly muted in general. This is a bit watery, but I can imagine that I would really like this very fresh from the brewery... maybe. Who knows?

Feb 20, 2009 bottle - Pours hazy dark yellow with a thin dissipating head. The aroma is of citrusy yeast, wheat malt, and some good spice. I really like it. If only the taste were as substantial as the aroma. It’s sweet and citrus accented, but also bland and watery. Warming helps some of course, but not enough.

Feb 16, 2009 Sampled on tap at the sprecher tour (glendale, wi). Pours a light glowing straw hue, cloudy. With subtle orange and gold notes and minimal whitish head. Aromas are light banana and clove with some nice wheaty flaked notes. A good start. Initial is light on the palate with some nice subtle lemon, light banana ester, light clove, and some nice wheaty malt graininess that fits on the end of the palate. Lemon is the theme, a little underwhelming taste wise, but highly sessionable. Light bitterness. Decent.

Jan 19, 2009 cloudy blond color and light to moderate carbonation. slight hint of clove, a little grapefruit citrus. Overall medium light flavor and light hoppiness. generally ok, maybe a good summer but the clovey sweetness is not my thing.

Jan 13, 2009 Sweet and spicy - this one has maybe a touch too much malt in it - something that seems to be a characteristic of most Sprecher beers. Lots of sweet banana and some citrus.
