Bottle, weisse glass. Crystal clear pale yellow with a white head. Aroma or slight banana and clove, otherwise mostly malty and helles-like. Flavor is malty and crisp. Banana and clove is barely noticable. Basically a lawnmower beer with a touch of character that is easy to drink.

Pours a pale golden color with a big foamy white head on top. Smells of grain, with a little bit of sweetness. Starts with a sweet grainy taste. A little bit of skunk towards the end. Pretty enjoyable.

Clear golden with a medium white head. Smells quite skunky with the head. Once the head diminishes it smells similar to a hefe with banana and clove smells. Malty wheat taste with some hint of banana. Not great tasting, but not too shabby either.

Bottle. Light, light, light body with a HUGE foamy white head. After it settles, it looks like champagne. Notes of yeast, banana, cardboard, wheat, and suntan lotion come out. Very unpleasant taste that is hard to enjoy. I would not have this agin unless I was forced to.

Pours golden and clear with a white head that lingers and lots of sticky lace. Aroma is malt. Flavor is light spice maybe some clove. Malty and with a very faint fruit taste. Clean finish. It is a decent brew but I would never chose this over a regular Hefe, there is just something not right about it.
