Nov 14, 2009 Actually had on-tap at the GB brewpub in Seattle.
A: Poured with a large, white head that hung around for awhile, before dissipating down to a mere 1/4 finger. Nice lacing on the glass. Body is a dark golden color, and quite cloudy.
S: I was a little disappointed with the aroma after how great the beer looked, as the smells of wheat and lemon were actually quite weak. Not bad, just difficult to find.
T: Smooth and light, with wheat, lemon/lime and some coriander present. A very decent-tasting hefe.
M: Medium-bodied and very creamy, with average carbonation.
D: Really, better than I was expecting. Instead of a churned-out-quickly hefeweizen, it looked great, tasted fine, and was very smooth and creamy on the palate. Definitely something I’d order again.

Nov 8, 2009 Pours a hazy yellow color with a medium to large sized pillowy white head. Flavor and nose is dominated by bazooka joe bubble gum, a little bit of clove, and hints of grain. Between the bubble gum and the overly sweet taste, I am not a fan. Moderate mouthfeel and medium length finish.

Oct 7, 2009 On tap and Weizen glass served at GB-Bollingbrook, IL. A straw/light gold color with a modest white, foamy head that gradually reduced to a film and small ring, and left some spots and streaks of lacing. The aroma was bread and ripe banana with spice as clove, and a hint of meaty yeast. Less the fleeting yeast note, the flavor was similar with some soft carbonation and light body. A decent Hefe.

Sep 5, 2009 On tap at the Virginia Beach location. Cloudy yellowish-orange color with a 3/4 inch white head. Aroma of ripe bananas and bubblegum. Tasty bubblegum flavor with light lemon and orange citrus. A good hefeweizen and probably the best beer I have had from Gordon Biersch.
