On tap at the brewery. Pours a cloudy pink orange with small off white head that lasts. The aroma is berry, wheat, cereal, clove. Light body, berry, wheat, clove, hairspray finish, no.

On tap at idletyme brewing. Pours out a hazy pink color topped with a white head. Nose is hef yeast spice banana a nice kick of the blueberries. Taste is more of the nice hef yeast spice banana bread and berries.

This was poured into a weizen glass.
The appearance was semi-dark burnt amber to crisp orange color, yeah, maybe a bit darker than some other hefeweizens I’ve had. Normal fluffy white one finger-ed head dissipates a tad quicker as well. Filmy lacing.
The smell starts off with the normal sweet to spicy qualities of a German hefeweizen and as it warms, subtle blueberry does slide in for a super nice subtle balance to it all.
The flavor starts sweet and brings in the spice a little bit further underneath. Wheaty malt does slide in underneath. Aftertaste is light with the sweet wheat and subtle clove combined. Finish is quick and semi-sweet.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium in body. Great sessionability about it. Carbonation rides fairly light. Stickiness seems contained, but not cloying.
Overall, it definitely fits as a German hefeweizen and on top of it, they put blueberry in it, uh....never heard of anything like this. Cheers to being the first brewer to do something like this and have it done well!
