Bottle. Cloudy orange with a large white head. Aroma is typically spicy, sweet and banana. Flavour is sweet, slightly too sweet with lots of banana and some spice in the finish. Quite boring, even for the style.

Aug 19, 2008 02-Apr-07 (500-ml bottle: Purchased 10-Jan-07 for $2.79 at Holiday Wine Cellar in Escondido, CA) This is a relatively average imported German Hefeweizen, which means it’s still a pretty good beer. Moderately sweet, with plenty of semi-ripe banana, but not spicy at all. The wheat base takes on strong bready notes, especially as the beer warms up. Banana bread aroma affirms the perceived flavor. Medium-bodied, but the beer gets a bit heavy and stale on the palate over time, despite the moderate carbonation. Hazy, golden-amber in color, but not fully cloudy like many other examples of the style. Fluffy, off-white head on the pour settles to a ring. Decent, but more enjoyable when cold because the banana is more prominent than the breadiness.

Aug 18, 2008 (GERMANY) Pours a hazy yellow color with a small white head. The aroma has a clove, grain, and some lite fruity notes. The taste is kind of spicy with a hint of wheat and banana. The mouthfeel is spritzy and quiet refreshing !!! My only problem is the taste falls a bit short.
