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.

On tap @ Bishops Arms, Karlstad, Sweden. This one was really tasty on tap! Lots of banana and spices with a wonderful sweetness. I love it! It’s so refreshing and "childish" to drink, almost like a soda.

Taste 7/8 Bottle 3078. Tasted in a weihenstephaner glass (ohhlala). Looks: Cloudy wheat in a golden body. Thick white head. Aroma: Wheat, yeasty and sweet. Taste: Smooth, light bodied. Effercescent and very drinkable. A nice mild hops bite in the finish.

12 oz bottle. I would prefer to get the half liter bottles of this, if I could. Cloudy, blond with billowy, ample head. Lots of carbonation, lots of flavor- sour banana. tart, refreshing. Complex, forward yeast flavor. Must compare this to some local wheat beers.

Wheat beers are my favorite, and this is by far the best sample I’ve gotten. I have zero clue why it took me so long to try. Absolutely brilliant golden-yellow with a great, large, airy. white head that lasts for quite some time. Superb head retention that slowly reduces to a full silky canopy and lace. Very Vibrant bouquet with major hints of banana, citrus, and a hint of cloves and vanilla. Citrus favors dominate along with major compliments of banana and clove. I’m now on a major mission to find this on tap, but the bottles are other worldly already.

Poured from a tap a light cloudy orange. Sweet and refreshing combination of notes and yeast with a touch of fruit,
