bottle. Cloudy orange yellow, large white head. Fruity nose. Light-bodied, fruity (lemon zest, banana) with some nice malts and accents of caramel.

50 cL bottle. Pours cloudy orange with a creamy off-white head. Light wheaty and yeasty aroma. Onlye vague banana in aroma and the following flavour. Light estery to mild orange fruity flavour. Light yeasty touch. Light but still decent and not watery - texture is almost completely authentic. Mild wheaty and yeasty finish.

Flavor is moderate sweet with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. (050308)

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a huge light orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and wheat. The flavor is slightly acidic with notes of wheat and malt, and the body is thin. Too thin and acidic for my liking, but stemming from the low ABV.

This light wheat has the color of heather honey, and just as hazy. The head is nice and the aroma and flavour are fruity with notes of wheat and banana. It’s like someone added a little water to the Original, so it’s not bad, actually it’s quite good considering the low alcohol. I keep it in store for days where a light beer is just right...

Dark orange colored, big yellow head. Some banana and sweetness in aroma, slight spices also there. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is weaker with still some banana and mild spices, some yeast in aftertaste.

Bottled, alc. 3.2% (BB 05/2007).
Hazy light brown color, decent white head. Banana and leather aroma. Wheaty, banana flavors, good body for this ABV. Decently tasty weizen for being only low alco, but of course not suprisingly as its "big brother" is a world class hefeweizen.

Bottled (3.2%). Totally hazy orange colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is banana and hops. Flavour is quite watery, slight banana, some malts and hops. Standard hefeweizen, but very good for having 3.2% ABV.
