Sep 16, 2007 Had on 7/5/2006. Aroma is a light sour Hefe like scent. Color is a light hazy orange. Taste is a mellow Hefe taste. Its a bit flat but is a good taste and could be a good Hefe if the carbonation was up a bit.

Mar 20, 2007 A very clovey aroma. Appearance is an opaque golden orange. Clovey esters and small bannana flavor, but for sure it is mostly clove. It tastes pretty similar to a pasteurized Paulaner or Erdinger, but with less bannana and vanilla. It is also extremely carbonated. It is above average.

Aug 22, 2006 Bottle: Courtesy of Styles. Lots of banana with moderate clove and a touch of yeast. Pours a slightly hazy yellow with a minimal white head that fades to nothing quickly. Flavor has lots of lemon and minimal banana. Light clove in the finish. Thin and fizzy mouthfeel. I like Hefes, but this is quite the letdown.

Jul 5, 2006 22oz bottle- Aroma of wheat and lemon on a cloudy orange body with no head. Tastes like a mellow flat hefe probably because the carbonation is so low. Has great potential.

May 24, 2006 Bottle: Pours a muddy brown/orange color with no head. The nose is tart and sour with some rotten fruit/banana and various malty smells. The flavor is also very tart and sour, nearly a lambic. If I think of it another way, it’s not nearly as nasty, but it says right on the bottle "German Hefeweizen". Sorry, no dice for me.

May 17, 2006 22 oz bomber. Pours a murky peach color with foamy white head. Over the top citrus lemon followed by a slightly sour note. Drinkable but why?

May 16, 2006 Bottle problems perhaps, or maybe just old, but hefeweizen should not taste sour. It looks like a flat pear nectar. This also had a tart lemony note ...but really just awful.

May 10, 2006 Updated: May 11, 2006Bottle: Dirty yellow, very thick and cloudy, moderate spritzy off-white head, settles quickly, no lacing. Pale wheat nose, seems sour, very little clover or banana... if any. Seems to be more of an American Hefe than a German one, by far. Tiz also an odd meat like aroma. Reminds me a bit of a rare steak. Sour start, touch of appleskin, not seeing any banana or clove at all. Remains with a wheaty mouthfeel, slight American Wheat aspects, but its almost as much of a pale Gueuze as it is a Hefe. As a German Hefe I feel its pretty far off base, but as a dull wheaty Gueuze its not bad. Thanks Jordan!
