Light gold. Nose is sweet, lots of clove and coriander, bit tart. Flavor is a bit thin for a hefe, some banana and bubblegum but a mite thin.

Draught, cloudy and carbonated, gold with a large rocky white head. Not much of an aroma at first, slightly citrus, hints of banana grew as it warmed. Quite a full mouthfeel for a weiss beer, not too carbonated, a wheaty flavour, not too sweet. Good.

A great beer. I love german wheat beers. This one was very crisp, carbonated and light , just like i like them. Very good germam beer. Us americans should learn that this is what a light beer should taste like, not like miller light and bud light. I don't love wheat beers anymore, so this is still good though.

On tap at a restaurant in a small Austrian city. Pours cloudy light yellow with a tall head. Clean nose with wheat yeast and banana. Clean and creamy flavors. Balanced well one of the better hefeweizens I had.

Served on tap at No. 27, Inverness. Great appearance - a fantastically large white creamy head. Light in body and beautifully served in its own branded tall glass.
