Poured into a Ayinger glass a nice cloudy golden orange/yellow color, nice carbonation, nice three finger creamy white head which lasted a little while, then left some sticky lacing. The nose is malty, nice touch of yeast, spicey, cloves, and banannas. The taste is fabulous, mostly malts, wheat, yeast, cloves, and some banannas. Nice slightly dry finish. Medium body. Very drinkable, this is an exceptional Hefe, the best I’ve had to date, hands down. An excellent thirst quencher for a hot day in Utah. Highly recommended.

Tap. Poured a hazy straw-yellow color with a moderate fluffy white head that stuck around for a while. Aroma is mostly clove and banana with some light citrus, a light spiciness, and some dough. Flavor consists of a moderate wheatiness with some doughy malts, a strong clove spiciness, some banana and light citrus that finishes with a moderate yeastiness. Rather creamy on the palate. Definitely a good hefeweizen.

on tap at Draught House in Austin. Pours a pale, cloudy yellow with a white head. Nose is of spices, yeast and banana. Taste is of banana, wheat, yeast and slight lemon. Mouthfeel is medium and is smooth and creamy. Liked it better as it warmed. I’m not a hefe fan, but this wasn’t bad.
