I had this on tap. it’s a decent beer but I thought it would be considered an American-style hefeweizen since it doesn’t taste German to me at all. It’s lightly hazy gold with light grain and citrus, and a little banana. It’s light and drinkable, with an overall rather dry quality but light sweetness. Drinkable, it’s rather bland, boring, and dry.

Draught at the brewpub. Hazy yellow color with white head that laced the glass. Smells and tastes of the expected bananas and cloves. Clove is especially prominent in the flavor.

On tap @ Park Chalet poured a cloudy yellow with a small dissapating white head. Aromas of wheat, light banana, light citrus and a hint of clove. Palate was light bodied and smooth. Flavors of wheat, light banana, a hint of bubblegum and some citrus with a smooth lightly sweet finish.

Hazy golden weizen with a creamy white head. Light bananas in aroma, with light sulfur notes. A light wheat beer with bananas and cloved, very weak and forgetable. On tap at BP, August 2005.

On tap, at the brewpub. Dark yellow, small white head. Faint wheat like light malt aroma, with a hint of citrus. Faint wheat like taste. Very light and crisp; quenching. Nothing wrong, but very bland.
