Commercial Description:
Nothing refreshes you more than this naturally cloudy wheat beer with its wonderful yeasty fragrance and taste. Goes well with dishes that do not have too intensive a flavour, especially that Bavarian speciality 'Weisswurst' or white sausage.

Yeasty, slightly fruity, light hazy yellow color. Flavor is crisp, light overall. Refreshing. Doesn’t seem very complex, but good overall.

Pours from the bottle with a huge white rocky head and a hazey yellow-amber colour. Well balanced wheat bear flavours cloves and banana/bubble gum. A lively carbonation gices the beer a nice crisp mouthfeel. Nice.

On tap at Binnys South Loop. Pour golden with a big, fluffy white head. Lots of carbonation. Aroma is of fruits, citrus, spice, grass. and malt. Aroma smells very refreshing and inviting. Taste starts off with lots of assorted fruit flavors up front. Delicious spiciness with lots of citrus in the body. Each sip finishes with a load of wheat and yeast. Lingering citrus taste. Very light body that drinks very easy. Well-balanced, and very refreshing. I liked it.

Aroma is spicy banana city. Creamy carbonation. Unfiltered apricot color. A bubbly very smooth beer with a hoppy slightly bitter finish, and that seltzer-y mouth tingle. very refreshing, fruity and light.

Probably the best Hefeweizen I have tried. Found this gem at Leo’s in South Point, OH and I only had to wait for one of those summer scorchers to crack it open. The special yeast is the most noticeable part of this brew, with a heavy banana and clove presence that goes down like water and doesn’t coat the mouth. Almost like a Kolsch with a beautiful yeast strain. Two thumbs up.

A hazy orange gold weizen with a beautiful thick and frothy head. Aroma of bananas, cloves, cinnamon and light lemony notes. In mouth, a nice refreshing weizen with nice sweetness, fruity esters, more berries than bananas. Medium bodied. Bottle from LCBO. BB 04-03-2009.
