Bottle. Cloudy as hell. Good head. Full aroma of malt, yeast, fruit (banana). Great rich taste, pretty sweet, medium to full body. Yeast and wheat malt finish,, long lasting. This is one of the great wheat beers.

Poured from the bottle. Pour produced a hazy, golden-brown body, topped by a small white head, which diminished mostly, leaving small, islets of foam. Lemon citrus aroma, indicative of the style, with slight hints of spice (though I felt it could have used more) Crisp carbonation, with a watery body. Flavor is sweet-sour, with a a good citrus profile, though not much in the way of spice. The overall flavor drops off sharply, unexpectedly, leaving a flat aftertaste. Initially, this beer has a typical, if unassuming palate. The shortness of the profile, while making this a quaffing beer, do little to fit the style.

Good Hefe. Lots of clove and spices on the nose, banana a bit muted for the style. Medium bodied and good easy drinking without being cloying.

Refer to past 1600 reviews for description. Nothing new to add. Beautiful golden hazy appearance, wheat aroma. A little too much banana for my taste, but overall and excellent beer that I can count on finding all over the globe.

On tap at Bear Mountain Octoberfest 2009. Very cloudy yellow, with a tinge of orange. The aroma is wheat, cereal grains, spicy. The flavor is clove, other spices, banana. The finish was spicy, clove, slight noble hops. Medium mouthfeel. Decent hefe overall.

Cloudy golden orange, with a nice tall head that dissipates a bit too quickly. Strong clove aroma, with a bit of bubblegum. Flavor is clove and bubblegum, with a bit of banana aftertaste. I guess this is a pretty basic hefeweizen. Not bad, but it leaves me wanting more.
