Commercial Description:
Delicious lemon and vanilla scented wheat beer with yeast. This is an aristocratic beer with a champagne sparkle and a beautifully sustained head. With the pale color of mountain honey and tart refreshing palate, it is a "brut" beer with the delicious, complex fruitiness of extra-dry champagne. Bottle conditioned and top fermented, it is a benchmark for this style of beer. The nose is fruity-spicy, herbaceous with lots of flowers, and fruit. With such a creamy head, you can build miniature mountains that resemble the Alps. Pour slowly, fill the special weissbier glass half full and swirl the bottle on the table to put the yeast in suspension.

Bottle. Nose is citric sourness, yeast and lemon. Cloudy pale yellow with no head. Smooth and clean palate with some sharpness. Flavor is underpronounced citrus, but nice. All around a refreshing hefe with a clean palate, slightly lacking in flavor.

Bottle. Pours a hazy golden with a large rocky white head that lasts leaving good lacing. Aroma of wheat, citrus, bananas, yeast, vanilla, and clove. Taste is the same as aroma with a mild spicy tart finish. Medium mouthfeel thats slightly creamy and well carbonated. A very well done Hefeweizen perfect for a hot Florida Summer day.

Foggy, golden appearance with a large, fluffy,white head and decent lacing. Wheaty aroma accented with banana, clove and lemon. Yeasty, wheaty, fruity, mildly sweet flavors; muted hops; some spicyness and tartness in the aftertaste. Creamy, medium-bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel. Smooth, fruity, long lasting finish.

From a bottle pours a slightly hazy light amber color with lots of fluffy head. Very light flavor not at all overpowering, very refreshing.

Forse dovrei fare un secondo assaggio, ma non mi ha convinto proprio per niente; poco, poco, poco, poco, poco, e un retrogusto paludoso che mi ha lasciato decisamente perplesso. Bevuta al Black Sheep a Brescia, pagata 4.50; non sapevo che mi avrebbero portato perché nella lista c’era scritto solo Weisse.

This is a superb hefe! Absolutely perfect for the blazing summer days. Had on draught at Blues BBQ in Charleston, WV. Beautiful cloudy opaque deep straw pour. It has a 3-finger head that lasts for great retention and leaves frothy lace. Sweet banana, some vanilla and slight clove to the nose. There are mounds of banana and wheat flavors, with the finish really drawing in strong cloves. The wheat, fruit and spice integration is almost unparalleled. The carbonation level mixes with a silky mouthfeel to bring a perfectly contrasting zest to the palate. For the dog days of summer, this may be one of the world’s best German hefe’s. (Formerly, this was my favorite style, and I’ve certainly had my share of them. This offering is "par excellence".) Prost!

Probably the best HW I’ve had so far. Lot of fruit and even vanilla yet not too sweet. Light, crisp, complex, great balance, soft water. outstanding. Classic summer session brew.
