Bottle picked up at the Vons in Thousand Oaks, CA. Pours with a murky orange hue with a huge white head that is mostly lasting. A very good looking beer indeed! Aroma is of yeast, citrus fruits, and spices. Amazing nose! Watered down taste, some yeast at the end of the taste, but not much. Very watered down in my opinion. A disaapointment - I was expecting more after smelling the beer. Medium mouthfeel, with medium carbonation. Not the biggest fan of this beer.

Bottle or tap .. Dark yellow muddy body. White head. Fresh heavy yeasty aroma. Medium to heavy flavour. Sourish and fresh. Light finish. Not at all too sweet. (Akkurat, Stockholm, 20.07.08)

Pours the typical hazy orange/yellow with a thick long lasting white head. Aroma was quite strong of wheat, cloves and banana. Flavour the same with hints of bubblegum, citrus and grain. Fairly light bodied. Celebrated my arrival in Scottsdale Arizona with one of these over X-Mas and boy was it tasty while sitting out in the sun.

Forgot how much i like german hefeweisse more than belgian wits when i had this beer the other night... Nice hazy golden with a thick head... Banana, yeasty aroma, more in the taste... Very easy drinking, very summery, but still holds up all year long...

Pours a slightly cloudy golden with a substantial thick white head. Aroma is banana and clove. Tastes of wheat grain, grapefruit, banana and bready yeast. A very good well-balanced example of the style at a reasonable price.

Bottle. Murky orange colour with large white head. Sweet, yeasty aroma. Very mellow flavour with the usual banana hints and vanilla in the finish. Remarkably light and crisp palate. Very drinkable.

Pours a hazy gold with a 2 finger rocky white head that has good retention. Aroma is huge on dried banana chips, some clove, and a hint of lemon. Flavor is mellow banana sweetness, grainy wheat, lemon, yeasty bread rolls, black pepper, a decent helping of earth mustiness, and some clove spice to the finish along with some vanilla aftertaste. Body is dry, astringent and slightly acidic.
