Aug 2, 2008 The citrus jumps out at you, even in the aroma. The appearance is cloudy; almost a caramel color. As mentioned earlier, there is definitely some citrus undertones in the flavor. The reviewer that mentioned banana may be on to something. My palate experienced a lively brew with a slightly "burnt" finish. Overall, a nice beer, very drinkable and much better than that wheat junk that Sierra Nevada puts out.

Aug 2, 2008 Quite similar to the Paulaner, maybe a bit more sweet and spicied. No other beer style beats german hefe’s in the summer. Flavour is wheaty, yeasty, hardly any hops. Banana and citrus are there like in most hefes. I like to jump from this to the dunkel and back if im to drink a few, since this stuff can get too sweet after a while.

Jul 28, 2008 Bottle, 50cl. A fantastic golden colour, and a great long lasting, fluffy white head. If you miss lunch, have a drink of this and you’ll be sorted until dinner.

Jul 22, 2008 Bottle. Pours a pale orange colour with a white head. The aroma has notes of herby yeast and some orange and banana. The flavour is light and pretty thin with notes of herby yeast, and some orange and banana. Quite watery. I’m a bit disappointed.

Jul 21, 2008 Pretty much a golden pour. Floral smell, some fruits. Nice carbonation, definete tinge of banana, light spiciness. Clean finish. Can’t get by the banana, prefer more citrus notes. I like their dunkel much better.

Jul 21, 2008 Pours a golden orange with a cold haze in it. Pours a big rocky head that recedes almost entirely.
Smell is clean and wheaty. Light hints of banana and coriander. Also has a bit of earthy funk.
Taste is mild and slightly bitter from the hops. Refreshing.
Mouthfeel is light and metallic. The metallic finish sticks long after the beer is done.
Decent drinkability.
