A light yellow beer with a small collapsing head white head. The aroma is sweet with sour notes and notes of hops - quite boring. The flavor is sour because of the lack of sugar - I don’t like that. I’m glad I’m not on a diet.

Clean copper color. Strong spicy aroma, fruity (banana), a bit metallic. Some sweetness, spiciness, but again the metallic touch.

Pretty standard aroma: Banana and vanilla mainly. Pours a cloudy orange-amber with a big fluffy head - good looking. Too light in taste and body for a winterbeer - its a pretty ordinary weizen, maybe a tad more spicy than usual. Slight estery aftertaste.

Crystal clear light golden colour with a perfectly dense white head. Aroma of bananas, cloves, wheat and a bit of coriander seed. Medium-bodied; Sweet flavour of bananas, wheat and some light pepper/clove spiceyness. Bubble gum is noticeable in the aftertaste. Overall, a nice 'authentic' kristall, great to try! I sampled this 50 cL bottle from the Brickskellar in Washington, D.C. on 26-December-2003.

Clear copper color, short off-white head. Aroma is hoppy, caramel malts. Taste is sweet malty. Quite typical amber ale. Not quite good.

Yeasty citric aroma, not as strong nose as in other Weisse though. Murky red-brown, creamy head. Banana and vanilla on a bready background. No real dominant traits, which makes it pleasant to drink, but a bit uninterresting in the long run. Medium to light body and a slight honey aftertaste.

Bottled. I found this in a convenience store at the Doral Building on Michigan Avenue, tucked behind the Coors Light tallboys. Tasted it on the train home, since the rush hour schedule wouldn't let me stop over at Flossmoor Station. Drank this from the bottle, so I couldn't tell the color well. But drinking from the bottle did kick up a nice foamy head inside, and there was a fine coating of yeast at the bottom of the bottle. Presented a nice wheaty nose when I opened the bottle. The usual clove and banana tastes only became apparent after the first few sips. Between that was a nice malty sweetness balanced unobtrusively by German hops. Further down the bottle, the lemony taste becomes evident, which builds to a nice tartness as it warms up. All in all, a good, tasty beer to find.

Very slight hop nose. Straw color, slightly carbonated soapy head. Pivo is right there is a sharp bitterhop taste which is of balance with the light body. pitty on the poor diabetic who has to drink this.
