Pours a nice looking hazy gold with very nice white head. Aroma is malt dominated with notes of bannana. Flavor not that good. Seemed too sweet in relation to other flavors a heff normally has, there is something off about the yeast they use, also the usage of the hops in this beer seem wrong. Mouthfeel is medium body, med. carbonation...by far the worst wheat I have ever had. Ron (1035), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 4, 2008 I felt guilty having a Russian beer on the 4th of July, but I was hot and I wanted a refreshing Hefe. This did not dissapoint. Sparkling cloudy yellow with a medium short-lasting white head. Fruity aroma with yeast and wheat. Flavor is yeast, banana, wheat malt and some lemon. Medium body and a nice mouthfeel. Nice and refreshing.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 2, 2008 Very pale, cloudy beer with a huge creamy white head. Aroma is sour fruit with some bread. Flavor is malt, a touch of banana, and (maybe) apricot, with a nearly hidden bitterness. Finish is very slightly bitter with a touch of sweetness. Very nice wheat. I’ll have this again.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 27, 2008 This brewery must have a Bavarian brewmaster because it has captured the spirit of the German hefeweizen very well , but not perfectly. It certainly beats efforts from most other countries. The beer has an excellent blend of esters and is light and refreshing. There is a very slight harshness in the aftertaste though. tarjei (1754), Bryne, Norway
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 22, 2008 0,5 l bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger - shared with Roger. Hazy yellow color, big white head. Aroma is fruity (banana), wheaty with some yeast. Flavor is fruit, spices, wheat and yeast. Refreshing and nice, and it´s a wit for me. theisti (1684), Leawood, Kansas, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jun 16, 2008 500 ml bottle from Lukas, KCMO. Pour is hazy yellow golden with a fluffy 2 inch white head. Aroma of cloves, banana and candy yeastiness. Some floral perfume present also. Taste has some wheatiness, some of the clove and certainly the banana. It also had a lot of "dirtiness" to the flavor. Not really in an interesting earthy way, more of an industrial dirtiness. This wasn’t terrible I guess, but really wasn’t a very good Hefe. Skinnyviking (4170), Copenhagen, Denmark

Sweet banana aroma.Mild round and fruity, mainly banana but also hints of apple and pear. Low carbonation, long sweet aftertaste. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 30, 2008 This brew poured a hazy golden colour with a big white head. Had a very nice pleasent wheaty aroma. Maintains a distinct bananna characteristic throughout the beer. Lots of tropical fruit flavor.
