Commercial Description:
Editor's note: Yes, the bottle calls it a hefeweizen. The beer, however, is brewed with a (fairly hefty) portion of lemongrass, which contributes a significant aroma and flavor. Thus we have deemed it a Spice/herb/vegetable and not a German Hefeweizen, which should be free from adjuncts (other than hops).

Bottled. Not a bad beer. Not enough "hefe" in this one for me. Little on the weak side.

Typical cloudy wheat beer. Nothing sticks out separating this one from the others. Unimpressed.

Not much of an aroma, not much taste to it, just a little bit of banana. Very easy to drink, but a very bland beer.
