Draft at Flying Saucer Nashville, served in the proper glass by a sssssmokin waitress in white lace stockings. Pours a cloudy golden orange with a white head. Typical banana clove aroma and nice refreshing, but earthy texture (from the yeast). Nice pale wheat malt backbone with balanced accents of clove and citrus, with the right amount of sweetness. Yeasty finish. Nice beer.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a cloudy amber color with a thick white head. Has a frouty taste, but very balanced. Not usually a fan of this style, however this is a good beer.

Pours a cloudy golden amber with a foamy white head. Citrus and light malt comes across most clearly on the nose with faint aromas of bananas and possibly cocoa. Immediately spicy on the tip of the tongue. Citrus and yeast come across in the finish. A bit too yeasty for my tastes but overall a very good beer.

Loooonnng time favorite. Many years ago some friends and I sat at a local bar and compared some hefe weizens side by side and this one came out on top. Still does. Poured with a fine white head and a bit of lace. Hazy amber color. Extremely fragrant! Intoxicating (sorry) spicy,estery, grainy aromas. Same flavors but stronger and a bit of yeasty bitterness. Superb balance. Body is just right for this masterpiece. Great clean finish. Champion session beer. Kudos to Spaten!! Having this on draft at Bodega downtown La Crosse, Wis. USA.

7 oz draught sample. Cloudy golden pour with a medium white head. Aroma of bananas, lemon and ginger. Taste of yeast, bread and bananas. Full but not overpowering finish. Great on a hot summer day.
