Lots of banana and clove notes. Brewed pretty much to style. Some manderin. Lyches. Bread. Lemon drops. Nicely done.

355 ml can at home. Thank you Bob! Unnclear yellow golden color with white to off white head that quickly disappears. Malty, light yeasty and light hoppy aroma,fruity, lot of banana, light spicy, light grainy, some caramel notes, floral and citrusy fruity notes in the beginning. Sweet and light bitter taste like aroma. Light to medium oily body with soft to average carbonation.

Shared 12 oz. can. Pours a pale straw with a light haze and a fluffy white head. Aroma is banana. Taste is banana, cloves, and bubble gum with some floral notes. Hints of lemon and wheat malt in the finish. Light-bodied. Good.

On tap at Hi Hat. Aroma brings back memories of Germany. Right on the money with bananas and bubblegum. Body, taste all on target. I get the high ratings. Finally, a true American weizen.

Draft at Craft Pride, Austin. Nice bright hazy yellow color. Great yeast phenols, banana, clove, light spice. Just as it should be.

The flavor is that of the authentic German varieties. Nice chewy yeast texture with a spicy clove finish. Gosh, in a blind taste test I would say this was breweries in Germany. It’s nice to see an American brewer do a Hefeweizen this well. Very nicely done!

Growler from a friend split 3 ways. Very hazy light yellow with a small 3 finger head that faded fast. i was told carbonation on this growler was way weaker than it should have been. Lovely nose, earthy wheat with a light sweetness of brown sugar and grape. Taste is nice. lovely banana but not overwhelming. touch of sweetness and the mouthfeel was out of this world. Possibly my favorite Hefe ever.

Beerfoot, Glaveston tap: Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is banana, clove, and a whole hock of yeast. Taste is similar: spicy and very fruity, but the yeasty, bready flavor is what really makes this beer stand out. A pleasant surprise.

Shaker pint draft at the Flying Saucer in Addison, Texas. This is a beer I have been looking to try for a very long time. The pour is a hazed yellow orange with a one inch white head. The aroma is grainy wheat, clove, and a soft banana. Nice fresh, typical Hefe nose. The taste is the wheat malt grain, mixed nicely with soft lemon, a bit of lemon rind, and then the yeast of soft banana and herbal clove. All flavors play together nicely. The palate is medium to light bodied, a silky unfiltered mouth feel, and a clean crisp clove finish. Really nice Hefeweizen, I am very happy to have tried it.
