Common descriptors are
This traditional Bavarian wheat beer is brewed with a mash bill consisting of 50% malted red wheat which produces a lighter bodied ale with tremendous thirst quenching potential. This brew is all about the yeast! The traditional German yeast strain we employ to ferment this brew unleashes massive amounts of esthers into the beer which contribute huge banana aromas and also some underlying spicy/clove notes. Hops take a back seat in this baby with just a kiss of Hallertau Hersbrucker being used to provide a faint crisp bitterness.
