Can to weizen glass.
Appearance: murky golden yellow color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light sticky messy lace
Aroma: banana sweetness; clove, bubblegum and sweet wheat, subtle grassy tones underneath
Flavor: blends the prior mentioned aromas to a semi-sweet to lightly spiced conglomeration; mild aftertaste of banana, bubblegum and sweet wheat
Texture: light to medium bodied, very sessionable; love how the wheat slows down the sweetness of the banana and bubblegum tones on my tongue; finishes crisp, bubblegum-like and sweet wheaty
Overall: not a bad hefeweizen, it mostly hits the notes but I never got the tart "wheat kick" I was expecting. Maybe again.
