Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Very hazy gold, no head. Banana estery aroma. It’s not as bad as I feared. However, the Germans have nothing to fear from this. NOt enough wheat for a kick off, still trying to be an ale rather than a full on wheat beer. It does make the usual mistake of trying to fall between 2 stools. Not a golden ale not a full on hefeweizen.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol 02/11/09. Golden in colour with next to no head. Fruity, citrus and yeast aroma. Flavour had the bananas and cloves, with some grain and caramel, before a dry finish. Unusual, enjoyable drinking.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond, Reading, 28/10/2009] Clear, pale gold, no head. For something named hefeweizen this tastes strangely like a belgian ale - yes I got lemon and pepper, but also very distinctive belgian yeast flavours - sweet banana and clove and ham. Strange, but quite a reasonable beer nevertheless. 7/2/7/4/13 [Re-rate, cask at the Monk’s Retreat (JDW), Reading, 25/10/12] Pours a slightly hazy amber-orange with a light fizz and a small white head. There’s a little lemon, lots of banana and a bit of ginger, with a light bitterness in the finish.. Possibly a little greasy in the mouth, but it’s less sweet and more balanced than most wheat beers. Actually quite enjoyed this, which is more than I can say of most wheat beers. 7/4/6/4/13

Cask, gravity dispense, at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading. Straw coloured with no head; rich fruit aroma, but also slightly sour; the flavour has rich trpoical fruit, and is syrupy without being too sweet; the finish is dry, but also refreshingly fruity.
