Commercial Description:
This coarse filtered wheat ale is fermented with a German yeast culture for a refreshingly light spiciness and hints of citrus fruit. A cloudy appearance and an immense creamy head are characteristic of this lightly hopped Bavarian brew.

(bottle) Pours a cloudy gold with a white head. Aroma was mainly clove with a little bit of banana-like fruitiness from time to time. Taste was not as good as the aroma would indicate, with just a light sweetness and a substantial wheaty finish. Not too bad though.

I bought an mixed eight pack of Sprecher beers, one Hefe Weiss was included. Thin head, unfiltered body with flavors of lemon, cloves, and wheat. Refreshing Hefeweizen that went well with Trader Joe’s Thai Lime and chili peanuts while watching a Cubs game on WGN.

16oz bottle- Poured a light copper color that you could not see through. Was no head at all. Tasted like burnt plastic with a hint of citrus. I’m not a huge Hefe Weiss fan, thought I would try it since its made in Wisconsin.

Bottle; poured a ruddy gold, with smallish white head. Aroma was dull and mellow; banana and spice. Flavor was a lilttle stronger, but still found it boring. Crisp taste of banana, yeast and grain. Ending was weak, with little after taste.

One of my favorites. Slight banana, lots of clove spice. Best fresh. Readily available bottled in Madison and on tap in Milwaukee.

Bottle... Hazy golden ale with a small, fizzy, white head. Very phenolic, estery aroma and flavor; hot apple cider with clove served up in a colonial kitchen or pre-game tailgate. Smells rustic. Smells like autumn. Smells and tastes of crisp, big-time college football with Pop Warner toffee, intramural vanilla and a touch of Keith Jackson lemon. That was a little twisted... must be that time of the year again! Medium to full-bodied with an oily mouthfeel and tingly carbonation. Spicy, sweet finish.

On tap at Small Bar, Chicago. Pours a light yellow with minimum haze. Sweet creamy nose bananas and wheat mostly, Creamy banana sweet flavors wheaty yeasty sweet, (reminding me a little bit of banana pudding) and a little citrus. Decent.
