Draft: Poured a slightly cloudy gold/orangey color ale with a medium size foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of semi-sweet wheat malt with some light bubblegum notes and faint bitterness. Taste is also a mix of sweet wheat malt notes with some bubblegum ester notes and light hops bitterness. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Enjoyable wheat with very refreshing notes.

This review was imported from my RateBeer ratings.

12 oz. can, 5.2% ABV, BB: SEP 2023

AROMA: I get minor scents of sweet citrus (tangerine/orange), banana, bread, and a hint of bubble gum. Most of the Hefeweizens that I've tried have been fairly aromatic. So I'm a bit disappointed in how subdued the aroma is for this beer.

APPEARANCE: Pours a hazy pale gold, with a thin, white head that dissipates quickly with absolutely no lacing.

TASTE: I'm first hit with sweet citrus flavors of tangerine and a touch of lemon, that then transitions to the more traditional banana and clove flavors of a Hefeweizen. The finish is slightly dry with the banana flavor hanging on to the very end. The sweetness level is higher than the typical Hefeweizen and I'm not sure how I feel about that. I don't hate it, but I also don't love it. It's just ... different. However, what I do like is the citrus flavor as it adds a touch of uniqueness to help differentiate this beer from other Hefeweizens. It also helps to dampen the (usually) overpowering banana flavor of typical Hefeweizens.

MOUTHFEEL: The body is a bit watery and I would say it is right on the thin/medium border with it leaning towards being thin-bodied. Texture is slightly dry and somewhat tacky on the tongue. Carbonation is on the high side of average.

OVERALL: Flavor-wise, I think I like this beer okay. However, in the future, given the mediocre body, aroma, and appearance of this beer, I think my money would be better spent on other Hefeweizens.

Part of an Advent calendar.

Best by December 2022. Yikes.

Pours a mostly clear pale gold with a small head of foam with some lacing.

Smells of cloves and banana, not much beyond that as the cloves are really strong.

Wheat, big cloves, bananas, eh...rather typical of the style, just not in the freshest way.

Light body and carbonation.

Good enough, I guess.
