Das obergärige, naturtrübe Weizenbier besitzt einen erhöhten Anteil an Kohlensäure. Gärnebenprodukte wie Fruchtester und Phenole machen sich in Bananen- und Nelkenaromen bemerkbar und geben dem Weizen seinen typischen Geschmack.

500 ml bottle into weizen glass, best before 5/27/2015. Pours hazy deep golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a good amount of streaming carbonation retaining the head. Aromas of big banana, clove, lemon, pear, apple, light bubblegum, wheat, biscuit, light honey, herbal, floral, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with good balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, bready malt, and light earthy hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big banana, clove, lemon, pear, apple, light bubblegum, wheat, biscuit, light honey, herbal, floral, and yeast earthiness. Light herbal bitterness/yeast spiciness on the finish; with lingering notes of banana, clove, lemon, pear, apple, wheat, biscuit, light honey, and herbal/yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. damn nice robustness, complexity, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, bready malt, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and medium bodied; with a very smooth and moderately creamy/bready, and lightly crisp mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with zero warming present after the finish as expected of 5.2%. Overall this is an excellent hefeweizen. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, bready malt, and light earthy hop flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink. A very enjoyable offering.

Fruchtig-weiziger Antrunk. Sehr viel Nelke, nicht viel Banane. Die Hefe wirkt schwer und unrund. Kaum Herbe spürbar, Hefe, weich, ein Hauch Säure. Sehr mild aber doch etwas schwer trinkbar aufgrund der Aromenkomposition. Interessant, aber irgendwie unrund, dennoch lecker und gut trinkbar.

Bottle. Pours hazy amber, I failed to produce the right head though. My fault. Typical Weizen aromas: Bananas and citrus, but also a bit of strawberry sirup. Short crisp mouthfeel. Not very complex, and the combination is odd.

Fliptop bottle, 0.50l, shared with Yoo. Pours cloudy deep golden with medium creamy white head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of wheat, banana, yeast and biscuit malt. Taste starts with moderate sweet grainy malt, follows refreshing yeasty and fruity with spicy mouthfeel and light bitter finish. Medium body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Surprisingly good hefeweizen...

Muffig-getreidiger Bananenantrunk, ansprechend herb. Weiter erfrischend, eher mild, die Aromen sind aber gut aufeinander abgestimmt. Zu Schnell wird das Bier dann aber mild und befindet sich zum Ende an einer wässrigen Grenze, nur die dunkelherbe Getreidigkeit steht noch dazwischen. Ein wenig trocken im Nachgeschmack. Insgesamt in Ordnung. 9/9/10/9/12/11

Swing-top bottle. Lemon-banana, clove, and wheat malt aroma. Cloudy pale yellow color with moderate head. Slight sweet lemon, light banana, moderately bitter clove and wheat malt flavor. Nice body. Very good - a solid weizen.

Buttery, low hops. Not that pleasant. Thin body. Did not care for this beer at all.
