Relatively crisp golden and peach coloured body with a thick, two to three centimetre tall off-white head and a touch of a haze in the body. Aroma of wheat, grass, hay, flowers and a tiny bit of honey - quite strong that shows a bit more than most hefeweizens. Light-bodied; Sharp wheatie and honey flavour at first with a very smooth and easy-drinking bite that shows wheat and some smooth flowers with a crisp, biscuity bite and no hops at all. Aftertaste shows some light honey and wheat throughout with a dry and herbal floral bite that shows some chamomile blossoms and a dash of earthiness towards the finish that is a bit more drying than most for the style, but some light sweetness, all originating from the honey and nothing from fruits or caster sugar. Overall, a nice-ish wheat that shows some very soft flavours, but some that aren't typically attributed to wheats, but more of a golden ale with a lot of additional honey. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Super One Foods in Kalispell, Montana on 26-July-2020 for US$1,67 sampled in my hotel room here in Missoula, Montana on 28-July-2020.

(Thanks, Jim! Ozzy70) Can. A- Wheat, straw. A- Gold color, clear liquid, white head. T- Wheat, lemon. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Brewed as an unfiltered Hefeweizen in American Wheat Style... What the hell does that exactly mean? Really, not bad but I did want some more of that Hefeweizen spice to it.

Can at home, from an IP with Stevoj, 18/08/19. Hazed golden orange with little in the way of a head. Nose is citric tinged straw, grains, light white peppery spice. Taste comprises orange peel, caramel, breads, light yeast esters, herb. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. No great !

355ml can. (5.9% ABV) Pours a hazy gold with yeast particles that sink to the bottom and a small, creamy, long lasting, white head that laces. Mild aroma of wheat malt, lemon and yeast. Sweet flavour of wheat malt, yeast and light orange with a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Ok, just a little boring. Lacks any banana or clove. Definitely a wheat ale and not a hefe.

12 oz can from Brewers Haven. Cloudy golden pour looks about right, but head fades quickly. Aroma is weak, a mere whimper of weizen notes. Tadte redeems this beer a little, but again its kind of weak, more wheat than weizen yeasty notes. Finishes and disappears. Lacking body too.

On tap at bier thirty pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is light grain wheat and a little spice. Taste is more of the light and I mean light grain, not much of a hef.
