Weisse Versa is unfiltered and has the refreshing characteristics you’d come to expect in a wheat beer, but the combination of the citrus peel and coriander added during the brewing process and the natural clove, nutmeg and banana aromas produced by our special, Bavarian wheat beer yeast result in a beer that’s unlike any you’ve ever had. With Weisse Versa you get the flavors you love in a German Hefe AND in a Belgian White beer. Both. At the same time.

A hazed blonde golden weizen with a thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light banana and cloves, light mineral notes, grassy hops, herbaceous, OK. In mouth, a sweet fruity malt with banana esters, cloves, light mineral notes and buttery mouth fee, OK. On tap at brewery.

12 oz can, purchased at the H.E.B, Austin, Tx in a mixed 12 pack. Color is darker than the start and Hefe, Amber hue to the gold. Aroma is decent yeast phenols, banana, light bubble gum and maybe a hint of diacetyl.
The flavor is just as the aroma indicates. Yeasty banana, clove, very mild touch of butter. The butter isn’t to off putting but there. Almost a hint of coriander (which I don’t really want in my Hefe) Body is medium texture with a mild fullness. Honestly it’s not bad from a can so on draft I would order it for a sample.

Location: 12 oz can from Spec's, 4/21/14
Aroma: The aroma is clove/spice, wheat, Belgian yeast, banana, and some orange zest
Appearance: It pours an unclear orange color with an off-white head on it
Flavor: The taste is much the same, a little sweet, spice, mildly tart, and with a mild bitterness
Palate: The body is light-medium, it has an average carbonation, a bit of creaminess
Overall Impression: Brought this and the Weekend Warrior to a work BBQ. Both were great beers for that kind of crowd (mostly people who drink Shiner and the like or don't beer at all), because they are both well-made, but not aggressive beers. Hopadillo, for example, would have been too aggressive. As for this one specifically, I like what they did here. One of the better new (to me) wheat beers I have tried in recent memory.

Refrigerated 12 oz.can, big thanks to BMart, poured into a weizen glass. Pours deep golden with big fluffy off-white head. Aroma is wheaty, medium body, medium carbonation, and little big bubble lacing. Taste is wheaty, bubblegum, coriander, some clove, some orange, and some banana. Interesting combination of hefeweizen and wit and easy to drink, but just pretty good.

Spec’s Houston sixpack of cans: Pours is hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is spice, plenty of banana, some citrus, cloves. Taste is slightly sweet. Definitely more drinkable than many wheat beers that stick in your mouth. Mouth feel is pretty nice. It is sessionable without being watery. Ultimately, I think that the combination that they were attempting worked well.

Can. An unclear, golden-orange beer topped by a dense, off-white head leaving lacings. The aroma has banana and bubble gum dominating, just a faint whiff of spices and pale malts or wheat escapes the glass. It feels a bit sweet on the palate, medium to full-bodied and nicely carbonated. Bubble gum and banana in the flavor, with a fine bitterness chiming in towards the finish. Overall, a quite decent one, placed somewhere in the middle of German and Belgian wheat beers. 131004
