| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 14, 2009 Serving date: 2009-04-16. Served in hefeweizen glass.
Yellow color, orange hues. Uneven haze in the liquid. Big white creamy head that settles just a little too fast. Some chunky lacings.
The aroma is mostly fruity - bananas, orange peel and peach. Wheat and white bread. Faint spices.
A rather week taste. Mostly sweet with some bananas and oranges. Plenty of wheat flavors and toast. Slightly spicy in the middle (cloves, white pepper). The finish is short, minimally bitter and has some spices, minerals and grassy hops.
Moderate body, low carbonation that could have been slightly more aggressive.
An average beer. It smells and tastes okay. Easy to drink, but it falls short compared to the many great German beers of similar styles.

Very light hazy white/gold colour with almost white dissappearing head.
Wisse-like nose with some spices.
Taste is citrus, banana, spices, but in a much too thin package. Medium carbonation, a little to citrussour, and a little too thin.
Certainly no match for the better German examples. waolsen (1222), Littleton, Colorado, USA

Aroma is banana and wheat. Taste is the same as the aroma. Dry aftertaste leaving a sour film behind. Disappointing for a Left Hand beer. 6ROW (258), corpus christi, Texas, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 17, 2009 12oz bottle. Bours quite dark - a murky bronze. Strong banana aroma light spices and a little citrus. Quite sweet - probably too much really, spices and quite a sugary finish. Reasonable but not my cuppa tea.
