Oct 8, 2009 Bottle: Pours a lightly hazy orange color. Light esters of banana and clove on the nose with a touch of citrus. Wheat and husky pale malt abound in the body. Creamy mouthfeel and a light snappy bitter bite in the tail. All-in-all not a bad german hefe, blows the doors off the american wheat beers.

Nov 25, 2009 Bottle from Costco - Cincy. Poured a hazy yellow color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate citrus and light spice aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. This is another just above average drinkable brew.

Dec 25, 2008 Bottle from Costco! Hazy pale gold color with a decent white head. Rather citric aroma. Near medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor is lemon, hidden banana, and a touch of metal. Also grain. Rather refreshing. Works.

Sep 13, 2009 Bottle. Cloudy gold with a tall white head. Aroma is big wheat with soft candied fruit, faint spice and big yeast notes. Taste is wheat, soft bubblegum, light hops, and big yeast notes. Not that much sweetness or fruit to this. Rather disappointing, taste-wise. Body is light and very bubbly. Ends with more yeast, big wheat and soft bubblegum. Still not much banana or sweet malt.

Oct 18, 2009 Tallahassee, Fl - Costco - 12 oz bottle - part of a 24 bottle variety pak for $18.99 - not a bad deal. Dark golden pour, slightly murky, with a sticky white head. Aroma has some brief hard candy sweetness to it - but no real hefe qualities. Flavor has some dull banana sweetness, and just a hint of bubblegum and some ripening vegetable notes. Mouthfeel is slightly metallic and starchy. Sub-par - expected a bit better from Gordon Biersch.

Jun 30, 2009 German Hefeweizen? Dude baby poop is not a bad description. Somewhat sweet, but kind of funky in a gone bad kind of way. Pours a hazy golden with a thin head. The flavor is sweet and full of cereal notes with a little lemon in the finish. The weird sweet note that was in the aroma pervades throughout. This was a lot worse than the lager. Pretty spritzy carbonation, light, and pretty bad.

Mar 6, 2009 Bottle. Aroma of wheat and yeast but rather mild. Pale gold color with decent white head. Flavor of toast and some citrus with the bitterness added. Decent on the palate. Good brew while playing cards.
