pivnizub (4007), Porúří, Germany Aug 23, 2008 Bottle (courtesy of Stefan): Hazy, pale golden, lemony-wheaty nose with a phenolic touch; quickly diminishing fluff "dirty"-white head; mainly sweetish flavour, light bodied, traces of hops in the sweetish-wheaty finish. Not so good.....
MoritzF (4019), Ruhrpott, Germany Jun 29, 2008 (bottle, courtesy of Quack-Duck) Cloudy, pale golden colour with a huge blond foamy head. Fresh, slightly sweet wheat-malty nose with moderate fruity notes, mainly banana, accompanied by a faint hoppy touch. Light-sweet and sourish flavour, light to medium bodied with a crisp mouthfeel. Wheaty and banana- and citrus fruity taste; moderately sweet and sourish fruity finish with a clovy touch in the aftertaste. Decent Hefeweizen (29.06.08). Quack-Duck (1977), Bodensee, Germany Jun 26, 2008 bottle, bought at the brewery. Cloudy bright pale yellow, big white and creamy head. Full-bodied, rather malty and with very intensive hints of banana. Fruity, chewy - a solid example of the style.
