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.

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.

This is one of my favorite German Wheat Beers. A hang-over buster. Pairs really well with pancakes.

Draft at Laschet’s in Chicago. This was quite a subdued Hefe. Nose was lightly citric and fruity, some banana and clove though more malty than anything. Taste is slightly metallic, somewhat bready, fizzy. Not as full bodied as I would like, though the caramelization is definitely there. Nice, but not my favorite.

Excellent, almost like banana bread. Smooth finish. One of my favorites on tap.

.5l bottle, abundant head that lasts, smells peachy, some lemon, faint banana and clove. Taste is nice, fruity, peppery, slightly acidic, fades out dry. This is much better than their dunkel, more dynamic.

Always looks a tint brighter than card board. Exceptional head that is laced with easters from the yeast. A balance on the palate of citrus, banana and earthy finish. Earthy like sweet raw mushrooms. Not enough hops to break the malt flavor but there. Refreshing.

Got this one on tap at Kclingers pub. Nice cloudy gold color. Good carbonation with a nice combination of fruit, malt an yeast flavors. Very tasty.
