Here is our "Wheat Beer with Yeast." Beers brewed with a high proportion of wheat yield a crisp and refreshing flavor profile, while the addition of our special yeast adds a blend of complex citrus and spice flavors...forget the lemon wedge, this Hef' has plenty of flavor!

2006 bottle on 5/21/06.
Fairly rapidly receding white head atop an unfiltered light golden-straw body. Light lacing at the the top, but it is not thorough.
Heavily estery nose shows pure, fresh, clean banana and tons of playful bubble gum. Mild citrus and some dashes of light peppery-dry notes. Creamed wheat takes over and the bubble gum just basks in the dryness as the moderate honey graininess stays strong throughout. Fairly high strength.
A bit more watery than the nose suggests, unfortunately, but nothing unclean. The strong wheat is there, smoothing things out, but unfortunately, the water is fairly prevalent, which really leads to the downfall of this otherwise well-malted and interestingly estery example. Plenty of supple pils malt and sweet wheat lead to a malty example, but the esters and light phenols dry it out and balance it on the end. Banana lingers on lightly with the creamed wheat. No alcohol noted.
