May 12, 2008 Cloudyish yellow with light banana aroma notes that translate into a mildly sour banana flavor. Easy drinking, medium-bodied, and moderately flavored, though lack complexity. Mild wheatiness.

Jan 9, 2007 Updated: Nov 27, 2007Draft at King’s Hardware in Ballard, WA. I like the effort here to make a Bavarian style wheat beer, but I cannot rate on effort alone. Upon first view, the beer was a nice cloudy yellow, with little head. FIrst aroma was butterscotch. This beer was infected, as the butterscotch overpowered the Bavarian characteristics I was excited for. I could taste some slight clove and banana. It was also extremely carbonated reminiscient of their pasteurized imported German counterparts.
Second taste of this beer gives a lot better impression. Obviously it was an issue at the bar. Second tasting rendered this beer to be a nice rendition of a Bavarian Wheat. Clovey with some wheat notes and a crisp lemon finish. It was not overcarbonated, but rather smooth. Good stuff.

Insanely sedimented. Massive fruity aroma. Bready, doughy, sweaty notes - puts the hefe in Hefe-Weiss. Quite tart, too, wheaty, with light phenols and sweat. Like a lot of their beers, it has a rustic edge.

Jan 17, 2005 I had this one on tap at Floyd’s in Seattle. It had a cloudy, light-gold appearance. It had a wheaty flavor that dominated with hardly any hopping. There was a citrus flavor that eventually came through. All in all, not a bad beer.
