The unmistakable characteristics of this Bavarian Weissbier are achieved with a yeast that is decidedly fruity and phenolic. You may note clove, nutmeg or even vanilla and/or banana-like aromas and flavors.

Bottle to weizen glass.
Appearance: cloudy yellow color with a big three finger white foamy head which really took it's time to dissipate, once it did, mellow lace appeared.
Aroma: semi-sweet wheat, mellow clove, some bubblegum, and some lemony character
Flavor: semi-sweet, subtle spiciness, and then there's those lemony tones, mild aftertaste of sweet wheat, clove, and lemon
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability, semi-smooth along my tongue; finishes semi-wheaty but not much of a bite
Overall: okay hefeweizen, I was surprised with the level of lemon in this. Odd but I was trying to figure out if that was intentional.

The aromas are traditional Bavarian clove and banana with yeast, bread dough and pale malt. Flavors are similar to nose, mildly sweet with a little tart and good carbonation. A touch spicy. Okay body. Decent but nothing special.

From City Brew Tours, no dating.
It pours a slightly hazy gold with an abundance of foam, shrinks slowly leaving good lacing behind.
The smell is cloves and banana, light citrus, fruity.
The taste is fruity..lemon, big time cloves, banana, yeasty, not sweet nor bitter.
Lighter end of medium bodied, lively carbonation.
Nice beer.

16oz can from Tavour. Golden pour, light cloudiness, fizzy head. Malty, bready aroma, banana. Taste is spot on with the banana and bubble gum notes. The only knock id the lightness of the body and the weak head.
