Our dream begins with open-top fermentation. At high krausen, a foamy, rocky yeast head crests the sides of the fermenter releasing notes of black pepper and spicy clove. Unfiltered and cloudy with yeast, it’s slightly tart and downright refreshing.

(11/16/08) Bottle at friends’ house in Philadelphia (Thanks David T). Cloudy yellow with a white head. Sweet aroma of banana and wheat. Sweetish flavor with some wheat, fruity esters, spicy hints and some unpleasant bitterness. Light-bodied. Smells like a good Hefeweizen, tastes like a mediocre Wheat Ale.

Deep hazy golden coloured body with orange highlights and a nice fluffy white head. Aroma of yeast, wheat, curacao and coriander seed - very nice! Full-bodied; Sweet orange & citrus tastes dominate the mouthful. Aftertaste shows some light spiciness and also some good yeast qualities. Overall, a very good wheat - definitely worth trying! I sampled this beer on draught as a sampler at the Shirlington Oktoberfest in Arlington, Virginia on 07 October 2006.

Lemon, orange, and coriander nose, good balance and strength. Pours cloudy golden with no head. Surprisingly dry and extremely grainy. The barley and wheat overpower relatively weak banana notes. Bacon finish. This might make for a good helles, but it’s dreadful as a wheat.

Looks all nice with a thick white head with little brown blotches on it from the unfiltered specks. Really pale cloudy body that looks just right. Smell typical banana and spice. Slight hops a lot of banana and fruitiness, with a spicy bite in the second half. It makes the next few beers that you drink taste a lot better too and that is a good thing because now I am drinking a Pabst.

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with primary notes of wheat, but also a light soapy note. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of wheat, and again with hints of soap.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of madsberg. Very unclear, pale golden with a dense, white head. Sourish, lightly citric nose. Fairly thin in body with citric accents and a whiff of yeast. The finish is dry. 290407

Bottle. Decent, but frankly didn’t think it was that spectacular. Very grainy, with some banana and lemon.

Did anyone say pale yellow american beers? Not quite. Seems a little more clear and less cloudy than other whites, no fog, without little things swirling around in there. without the yeast.Slight yeast aroma. Initial bite was slightly bitter as mild hops but the bitterness faded within minutes after the first taste. A little less than average carbonation. And yes, I did imagine banana....! Specifically, not real bananas but the taste of a good quality banana popsicle on a warm sunny day. How interesting. No lasting bitterness on the finish.
