Tap at the Gotemba Beer Kingdom festival. Pale blond colour, creamy head. Aroma is wheat, lots of it. Not much else. Taste similar, bit of cream, some banana, maybe little bit of spice. Quite nice and refreshing but not wildly exciting.

Can direct from the brewery via rakuten, listed as Weizen not Weiss. A slightly cloudy straw gold pour with a foamy white head leaving behind fairly minimal lacing. The aroma is cloves & a butterscotch yeast quality to it. The taste is sweet, yeasty, light cloves and a mild buttery flavor. That buttery taste is diacetyl an off-flavor in a hefeweizen. It is an ok beer but not as good as the schwarz & pils which beat my expectations whereas this disappointed me.

Draught at the brewery. Glowing cloudy yellow color, very bubbly, with a thick, fine, head. Aroma has a decent sour edge to it, lemony, with banana and clove. Medium rich malt flavor. Refreshing, and not too sweet. Tart as well. Well done. Not very special, but good. A bit thin.

Draught at the brewpub. Cloudy yellow, small head. Estery raspberry , bandaid and banana up front. Light-medium bodied with cottony spun sugar, strong wheat malt character and plenty of banana. Solid weizen.

Bottle (possibly a can actually)at GBBF 08... Brewed at the foothils of Mount Fuji ... slightyly hazy yellow ... banana wheat nose ... bright fruit loads of hops and very fruity
