Commercial Description:
An old fashioned Bavarian favorite, this "yeast-wheat" style has enjoyed a popular revival in recent years. Made from a 60wheat mash and fermented with a special strain of yeast, its complex flavor, with notes of clove, banana and vanilla, is unique in the world of beer.

Pours a hazed amber brown. Yeasty nose that is just bringing the funk. Full banana on the flavor, which is kind of a good sign that these guys maybe sort of know what to do here. Nice robust and earthy profile. Full body feel on the mouth. Smooth carbonation. Overall very drinkable. Just a nice robust hefe.

Tap @ Triumph Philly. Poured a hazy dark golden color. The aroma had very big banana notes with some clove and licorice underneath. The flavor had banana and big clove with a mildly tart/citric finish that drys out a good bit at the very end. Mild spice.

Very good. i’m always surprised at how well brewpubs can make a hefeweizen. Light copper/orange color with about an inch of white head. Lots of banana esters and clove. light and refreshing especially because it was 90+ degrees outside.

Real good on tap at Philly location. One could have many of these on a hot summer afternoon in the city.
