crazyvin (1246), New York, USA Jun 26, 2007 A nice yellow, slightly cloudy colored body. It had a thick frothy white that had some lacing. A nice aroma, with a mix of citrus notes, yeast notes, and peppery notes. Flavor was similar but the yeast notes were more complex, sweet initially and somewhat bread-like towards the end, but the flavor was dominated buy a nice pepper bite. I had this beer on probably the hottest day so far, and it truly is a summer beer. RiverHorse (454), New Jersey, USA Jun 23, 2007 Pours a cloudy golden color with a small, half inch tight head and better than average lacing. The smell was wheat, lemon, and bubblegum. Smooth, refreshing taste with a good mouthfeel. This is a nice summer beer. PorterPounder (3133), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Jun 18, 2007 Hazy, yet bright yellow pour with a meringue like white head. Clove and bubblegum aroma with a hint of lemon. Banana and estery flavor - nice and subtle and smooth. Mouthfeel is pleasant and refreshing. Has all the requisites of an excellent Hefe - not much more to say. Very refreshing in the summer heat. Thanks to Aurelius for saving this out of his Ale in the Mail shipment. LinusStick (1831), Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 9, 2007 One of the best hefes I’ve had. Strong aroma of wheat and yeast. Pour was a light gold at the bottom and it gradually got darker as it went up the glass. Nice 2 finger white head with good lacing. Taste of bread, yeast and banana. Nice and crisp and all the flavors fill the mouth and don’t go short. HopheadHans (753), Bay Area, California, USA Jun 2, 2007 Bottle. Pours with a azy straw yellow color and a smallish head. Strong aromas of wheat, bubblegum, bread and yeast. Very nice flavors of wheat, yeast, dough. One of the best Amercian interpretations of this style, true to the German intent. Loved this beer, goes well with spicy foods or just as a thirst quencher in summer. beerfinder1 (45), PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania, USA May 31, 2007 Prettty good beer for a Micro Weiss beer. Usually micro weiss taste flat. this has a nice citrus taste. cloudy texture Cappadonna (104), Delray Beach, Florida, USA May 25, 2007 Pours pale yellow with bone white-foamy head and minimal carbonation. It reminds me of meringue pie. The aroma is sweet and citrusy and further reminds me of meringue pie. The taste has a sweet and sour thing going with lots of spunk from the carbonation that is released as it enters your mouth. Lemon flavor comes through. Has a tangy, spunky feel from the carbonation. kenb (1100), Oregon, USA May 25, 2007 12 oz bottle via MALT OF tHE eARTH bEER cLUB. Pours a hazy yellow with a small white head. Nose is bananna, clove, honey. Taste starts with some sweet honey, lemon, then some bananna kicks in, and finishes very tart and semi-dry. No hops detected. Metallic aftertaste. Body is light/medium, carbonation is high. Is right on for the style, however it is just not a style i care for.
