That was the first nonlager beer that I ever tasted. It remains a sentimental favorite. The first time I tried it, I drank it fast, and from a bottle. I hated it then, thought it was too lemony, spicey and generally undrinkable, I expected to see it bashed on sites like this, but I’ve seen only really positive reviews of it. That got me thinking, and I realized that the problem wasn’t in the beer, but in the way I was drinking it, tried it again, this time sipping it slowly from a glass, and the taste opened up to me. And I loved it. It’s smooth,a bit yeasty, and looks a bit murky, amd the banana taste lingers a bit in the background.

Had this on tap at Gustav’s Pub in Portland, Or. and it is an EXCELLENT Hefe, but what else do you expect from Germany. Great appearance, with a beautiful head and a very citrusy flavor. If anyone puts a lemon in this, they should be shot.

Hazy straw colored pour with a 2 finger, effervescent white head. Strong bannana clove aroma w/ hints of honey and some yeastiness. Big sweet bannana clove flavor up front w/ a refreshing dry wheat finish. Medium, sticky body.

On tap at Chalet Alpina, Forest Hills, Queens, NYC. Cloudy yellow-orange hued beer having a long-lasting giant white head. Soft carbonation. Fresh sweet malt, spicy clove, and citrus aromas. Light-to-medium bodied that starts with a creamy slightly sweet malt with spicy flavors and finishes clean with no discernable aftertaste. A refreshing and delicious hefeweisse beer. Goes great with smoked pork loin and pickled red cabbage.

Thick, full, and strong head. Cloudy yellow to brown colors. Very first smell is a sweet banana aroma. I Definatly taste banana flavors with orange and lemon flavors. This beer feels is smooth and foamy as it goes down giving a good compliment to it’s rich bouquet and full body.
