Nice color, warm orange. Taste is sweet up front, kind of straw like malty ness. Finish gets a little bit blah, with malts tasting like cheap beer.

Not a significant smell with some banana and caramel malt with some esters. Pours a hazy blond color with a nutmeg hue in the center with a frothy white head and lots of carb action. Grainy malt taste, sort of bland, with some hop esters. Light bodied, dry slightly watery, soft and lively carbonation, and a smooth metallic finish. Just a bland taste compared to the other great hefewiezens from Germany.

Nice aroma of bubblegum, some cloves. Big white head. Cloudy golden colour. Taste consistent with aroma and nice slightly tart finish. Hefeweizen is one of my favourite styles and I like this one - very easy drinking.

12oz bottle with noticeable yeast strands swirling in the bottle. Pours a nice hazy gold yellow with a thick white head that fades leaving peaks. Aroma is strong wheat along with the taste, finishes slightly sour.

Bottle. Musty spicy aroma. Hazy orange body, fizzy white head. Pleasantly balanced flavor of wheat and malt, with some citrus notes and banana.

Quite spicy. I’m an IPA drinker, so the malt and spices are not my favorite drink. I have to say that this is better than other hefeweizen I have drunk.

Bottle. Poured a hazy orange with a huge white head that rapidly diminished. Loaded with ester and yeasty aromas - orange and banana. More ester in the flavours with a dominant orange peel quality along with an apparent herb/spice component - clove mainly - and some acidity. Wheaty and yeasty again with a warming alcohol character and a nuttiness mixed with an ester finish. Light but lively and refreshing palate texture.
