Hazy orange color. Big head is white, cloudy and long lasting. Aroma is yeasty and banana-like. Flavor is wheaty, banana-like and sour in the end. Light-bodied, smoothly carbonated palate. Very refreshing hefeweizen.

Bottle from my local bottle shop. Poured a dark gold / orange with a nice head and good lacing. Definitle banana and fruit in there. Something about this didn’t hit the target for me. I did add to my rate that it was the last beer in a very very heavy session and to try again to see if it deserves more respect.

Aroma: citrus, yeasty, bread, orange, banana, cream and butter Appearance: frothy white foam 2 finger head with excellent lacing; golden, cloudy orange throughout Flavor: medium sweetness Palate:light body, thin feel, average carbonation, pronounced yeast finish Overall, this is a solid, refreshing beer that I would I be happy drinking on most any occasion. Had it several times, and it must be poured correctly with full head for proper enjoyment or the experience is severely hindered.

This one pours a pale, opaque wheat/golden color with a shallow head and nice sticky yet fast lacing. Smells of wheat, grains and a lightly fruity pastures with slight hay notes. The taste is light but full. Flavors of wheat with a light bitterness and light barn-like notes on the finish. Has a fair amount of carbonation and the flavor finishes pretty quickly. A very nice brew overall.

12 oz bottle. Very nice, but also rather standard aroma in this wheat beer, bananas, orange/lemon zest, and lots of yeast. Poured with a decent white fluff head, no real staying power or lacing, very cloudy orange juice color. An enjoyable taste overall, lot of good fruit flavors, banana, orange, and a more prominent lemon than expected, but as expected a good amount of wheat dough and yeast, very citrusy finish and linger, in the feel though, there is just a little too much carbonation to me. Not alot to complain about, definitely an upper-end hefe.
