Bright orange colour – couldn’t get the yeast out of that bottle. Aroma has yeasty notes, banana esthers and some citrus. Flavour is bitter in a harsh way. It has citrus, some yeasty notes, banana esthers and distant floral notes. Decent.

Draught at the brauhaus
Muddy orange-amber color, with creamy head. The spicy wheat aroma is quite nice. The body is soft, with light residual sweetness, with wheat character, but unfortunately also with too high bitterness that kills this kind of soft beer.

2 liter bottle@Helsinki Beer Festival 2011. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is mild diacetyl along with some wheat, fruits, herbs and mild yeastyness. Flavour is quite much the same ina nice balance. Finishes quite yeasty and mildly wooden.

Hefig-herber Antrunk, trotz der recht dunklen Farbe sind Malzaromen vorerst nicht auszumachen. Hopfig, stärker ist aber der Bitterhopfen präsent, der sich zum Abgang hin noch ausbreitet. Hier auch etwas malzig, was sich der Bitterkeit unterordnet. Dennoch wirkt das Bier hier harmonischer als zuvor. Bitteres Weizen mit wenig Süffigkeit. 11/10/7/9//9

Bottled at Helsinki Beer Festival 2011. Poured copper in color with white fast disappearing head. Sweet almost sahti like in aroma. Flavour similar with sweetish notes. Quite neutral and mild in taste.

Sample from 2 Litre bottle at HBF 2011. Poured copper color with a thin head. Aroma was yeast and wheat, slightly sahtilike. Flavor was wheat and some spicy notes. Quite pleasant.

2L bottle shared at HBF2011 (tnx Rauchmalz). Pale head. Mild hoppy nose. Slightly hazy coppery colour. Slightly sour taste. At the end spicy bitterness. The beer was different in the top compared to that in the bottom. A bit colder than other beers tasted.

Bottled 2000ml (HBF listed as "Steigerwald Hefe Weizen", no label)
Clear amber color, decent off-white head. Overriped banana in the nose, some candy too. Medium-bodied. Banana, sticky clove spiceness. Lingering yeasty spiceyness in the aftertaste.
