Tap at brewery. Poured a very hazy yellow/orange color, creamy medium sized white head. Aroma was yeasty, dough, with notes of caramel, spices. Flavor was very yeasty, with spice, caramel notes. Went in with low expectations, and was quite happy with the results.

Served from a very fresh growler from the brewery. Pours a hazy orangish yellow color with a fairly large head, poor head retention and lacing. The aroma is very much like a hefe, full of doughy malts, yeast, caramel and subtle spice, which I assume is the juniper but doesn’t show much character. Taste is doughy malts, pineapple and much more of the juniper than in the aroma. It is subtle, but actually balances with the rest of the beer fairly nicely, though a very tad bit stronger would be perfect. Medium bodied.
