Bottle, says organic on the label. Hazy gold, white head that didn’t last. Subdued esters - not that banana-y. Taste is citrusy and very spicy. Astringent and fizzy mouthfeel. Would be a good cheese beer.

Cloudy golden color, but odd hop profile in the nose. Light and refreshing, but aftertaste is too hars. Not really to style.

Very pale. Took some work to get any sediment out of the bottle and into my glass. The head didn’t hold. It’s billed as Weihenstephan yeast, full-on Bavarian but it smells Berliner to me with that clean tartness and vague gooseberry notes. Vaguely tart on the palate with hints of lime. Not a bad beer, but not remotely Bavarian.

Bottle. Reasonable head. Pale straw colour, hazy. Aroma and foretaste too sour, almost almost unpleasant. However after that settles to a more pleasant vanilla and malt taste with some banana / fruit notes which lingers reasonably well. Mouthfeel reasonable, but not great. Hefeweizen is not a favourite style of mine.

Bottled. Golden colour, rich head. Banana aroma. Medium sweet with balanced esters and soft mouthfeel. A refreshing, well made hefeweizen.
