Commercial Description:
The authentic Bavarian style is brewed with a special yeast which gives the distinctive flavors - spicy and fruity with a hint of banana. Extremely refreshing, it is bottle conditioned and should be served cloudy.

500ml BB Jul 08...bugger! Cloudy orange body, stable but small white foam. Familiar ’old’ weizen aroma; orangey citrus, vanilla, green banana, gritty pepper and spice, bit of sharpness on the nostrils. Lively carbonation, a bit sharp, enhancing the overall lactic quality of the beer, creamy texture, lingering chalky dryness. Lightly fruity body, mainly orange/lemon citrus, unripe banana, some spice and vanilla. Lingering bread on the finish, metallic bitterness. Reminds me a fair bit of some of my early attempts of a homebrewed hefeweizen. Not bad, but got far worse with age...guess i’d have to track down a fresh bottle of this for comparison.

EBF2008. It’s unclear, orange-golden with a weak head. The aroma has notes of banana, wheat, citrus and a little spice. The flavour has sweetness and notes of banana, citrus, wheat, light clove, yeast and it’s like a German hefe with a dash of Belgian wit.

100ml poured from a bottle. Late straw body with a light haze. Weak smell of tart fruits. Rather vaguely taste of sherbet lemon, banana and cloves. Spicy hop ending. Watered in the mouth &#40;12.09.2008&#41;.
