Delicious citrus, banana, and vanilla aroma. Deep cloudy golden color. Large head which dissipates regularly. Heavy sweetness with a light/medium body, and slick texture. A very fruity wheat beer, but good nontheless. I will definitly be buying more of this.

Received as a small sample. Like a typical hefe-weissen, pours cloudy. This is a deeper yellow than others I’ve had. Taste is extremely predominant. Banana, citrus, other light spices. THin head that remains for a good bit. Very tasty. I would purchase a case.

Bottle. Clowdy gold color. Thick creamy head that goes away after half the glass. Sweet aroma, fruity smell and aftertaste. Love the directions on how to pour on the back of the bottle!

Light, with a creamy banana flavor. Very refreshing. Bottle, cloudy pour. Definitely up there as a favorite hefeweizens.

Thick, frothy head, amber-orange color, fairly clear for a weizen beer, very faint citrus nose, very pleasant wheaty taste. This is not my favorite weizenbier but is a very good one and since it is readily available here I buy it again and again.

Munich, Germany. 12 oz Bottle poured into a weizen glass. Instantly when poured you can smelly the yeasty, european hops. A Murky Honey Colour gave it a unique presence which I really enjoyed. The head was frothy and thick, the head full lasting down to the last sip. Unique fruity citrus taste and hops, a mild bitterness in the aftertaste. I really enjoyed this brew in munich.

Light golden cloudy color, white head.. Great wheat beer with no fruit flavor like you will find in many other wheats. Great warm weather beer. Aroma of banana and light yeast. Quenshing carbination. Really enjoyed this one.

Nice and cloudy pour with a decent amount of head. Aroma is pretty bland being almost entirely wheat, but the taste as much more complexity to it. There is a very nice spice that compliments the wheat flavor with a hint of yeasty goodness. Excellent beer all around and not too extreme. I imagine that this is the perfect beer to introduce someone to the imported/craft brewing world.
