Bottle. Very atypical for a Hefeweizen: No noticeable wheat, a quickly dying head, very little residual banana, but quite crisp. Some malts, some hops, but not much. Due to the carbonization I don’t feel much else though.

No head building, fully hazy yellow-ochre beer. Fainly spicy, bit dull, ditrus, banana, clove, lightly melon. Sourish, again faintly spicy and lots & lots of yeastesters, clove. Ends a bit dead. Light body, light wheatslickness, seems undercarbonated , certainly for an Hefeweizen. The head missing might be due to the glass, rather than to a brewing fault. Still not special. Txs to Geoff!

Very huge, very stable & dense yellowish heead, leaving shards of lace over yellow-orange beer. Hoppy nose, bit spicy (peppery), herbal, carrots. Quite bitter, hoppy flavour with noble hops too. Just the finish is a tad harsh, getting quinine-like. Bit astringent, light body, medium carbonaton after all the headbuilding. Certainly not spectacular, but still a decent IPA. Txs to Geoff!

Small, fast gone yellowish head over reddish/amber beer. Fresh herbs as parsley, caramel, lightly coloured malts. Sweet caramel, parsley, caramelized mushrooms. Light body with a faint slickness. Ubiquitous. Thanks to Geoff!

Clear golden beer, fast gone whitish head. Dull malt nose, bit of grain too, graindust. Dry-bitter flavour with an unexpected decent balance malt-hoppiness. Light body, falls a bit dead, unfortunately. Medium carbonation. Unpretentious, hence having its merits.

Draft. A golden beer with a lazing white head. TBE aroma has notes of straw and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, herbs, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.
