Sep 26, 2008 The bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also. Very nice aroma - yeasty-strong, alcoholic. Tastes the same, very strong and yeasty, fruity and fresh, the finish is more sourish, scratchy, a bit like wood. Not bad, but I liked the Schneider & Brooklyner Hopfen-Weisse more.
Big thanks to jjpm74 for the bottle!

Jun 24, 2008 hazy like a humid saturday afternoon, orange-gold in color. playfully alcohol on the nose, with banana and spices to keep things interesting. spicy, sweet, citurs, bitterness, and other stuff too. this is a complex beer that demands your attention. goes great with vietnamese bun and spring rolls.

Jan 2, 2009 750ml bottle from Swolf3, thank you Wolf. A bit darker than the Schneider version. A lighter aroma than the the Schneider as well. Much smoother and a little more flavor as well, not nearly as harsh. Very good.

Mar 4, 2009 Great combo beer. 2 of the best brewers coming together to make an amazing beer. Fruity flavor with good hop finish. Must have for everyone.

Dec 7, 2009 Updated: Dec 10, 2009750 ML Bottle in USA. Huge spicy hoppy nose. Pours cloudy orange with a thick white head. Good citrus flavors, wheaty, and good German weizen yeast qualities, but there’s a big hoppy presence which I feel is out of place, spicy and citrusy. Very good.

Jun 9, 2008 750 ml bottle (the first 750 of a German-style beer I’ve seen?) from Richmond Beverage in Richmond, VT (May 2008) served near cellar temperature once the head finally dissipated from a Ramstein glass, after an entire bottle of wine and a big shot of bourbon, so this reivew is gonna suck. Bite me. Pours a hazy dull brass-bronze with a massive gout of head that refuses to disappear for several minutes living a bit of chunky lacing as it finally dies....thick caramelized bananas in the nose, light spices, vanilla syrup and a bit of bourbon, very sweet.....full and luscious mouthfeel, lightly alcoholic, quite malty and rich with caramelization dominant, a bit of woody bitterness towards the finish, little in the way of wheaty tartness though it’s there if you look for it, particularly at the end when it’s warmed a bit....not a patch on Plank or Alesmith, but eminently drinkable, if a bit pretentious and pricey in its packaging.

Jun 26, 2008 Bottle. Big fluffy white head and loads of carbonation, befitting the style. The spicy hops nearly overwhelm the banana esters in the nose, but not quite. Light orange body. Rather dry body, mild bitterness, some hop aromatics come out in the finish.
