nramsburg (200), New York, New York, USA Dec 7, 2008 From bottle.
Pours to a light yellow-ish orange with a sizable, 2 finger head. Good amount of carbonation. Lots of yeast and some citrus and banana on the nose.
The aroma gives a strong hint to the flavor, with a good deal of citrus coming through right after a yeasty first taste. A bit of clove, as other reviewers have suggested. Coriander as well.
Smooth finish, very clean. A strong example of the style. altacyr (144), Campinas, Brazil Dec 6, 2008 Updated: Jan 10, 2009Foi com essa cerveja que descobri as verdadeiras cervejas de trigo. Aroma frutado, lembrando banana e caramelo. Espuma densa e persistente, cremosa. Sabor com toques de fermento. mkel07 (494), Brisbane, Australia Nov 27, 2008 Bottle. Poured with a wonderfully thick creamy head. Cloudy and hazy amber colour- great taste with a fruity aroma. BlackForestCO (819), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Nov 27, 2008 Bottle. Poured a hazy yellow color with a thick, rocky white head that diminished slowly to a thick layer. Aroma of lemons, banana, wheat, clove, and some light yeastiness. Tart, crisp entry with some lemon and wheat transitions into a soft banana and clove spiciness, followed by soft apricot paired with some doughy yeast. Crisp finish. Low carbonation, but the wheat provides a nice bite to complement the flavor. Very nice, refreshing beer. lithy (1600), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Nov 20, 2008 Cloudy orange body with three pretty fingers of puffy lumpy white head that falls at the edges leaving a nice dome of lasting foam. Strong yeasty clove spice aroma and bananas. Taste is smooth and sweet bubblegum, wheaty body, pear and bananas. FriarHop (31), Long Beach, New York, USA Nov 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours a cloudy/dirty amber, nice lasting head. Sweet bubblegum, light fruity aroma. My favorite (so far) hefeweizen! floydian1 (255), FNQ, Australia Nov 2, 2008 Updated: Dec 13, 2008500ml bottle into eponymous branded weizen glass. Cloudy golden colour with an ample foamy white head. Classic spicy yeast banana aromas. Tingling fruity chewy palate with classic bubblegum and clove notes with a clean neutral refreshing finish. A top class Bavarian wheat beer.
tedovertu (259), Apple Valley, Minnesota, USA Oct 29, 2008 Great Hefe. As usual bubble gum and banana mixed with some mild clove. A yeasty doughy texture. Huge creamy head that was extremely long lasting. Hazy murky clarity with average density. Color medium yellow. Light to medium body with creamy texture.
