Citrusy, banana, and bubblegum. Sweet and estery with some brown sugar. Cloudy brown-orange, rich in color. Off-white foamy lacing head. Medium-high but smooth carb and medium watery body with a little chew. Good flavor - starts a little sweet with some lemon zest and bananas. Wheaty and a bit chewy from yeast sediments. Slight malty/tart finish and refreshing sweet/bitter after. Well-balanced. Good quality wheat beer.

Fine fruit, apple, banana is the overall impression of this beer. Pure and clean in aroma and flavor.

My first weiss of the season! And it looks like a beauty, slightly cloudy deep golden with a massive, massive billowy off-white head. Nice banana-citrus aroma, maybe a hint of Cointreau? Flavor lemony, lightly acidic; body is very smooth, crisp, full. Seems a little "tame" to me, but still excellent; wonder how Paulaner will fare next to it in this taste-test?

A lovely medium dark colour, with a big, white head, and an inviting aroma. A smooth taste, which bursts with flavours as it moves to the back of the palate, leaving slight watery tinges in the aftertaste. A great German wheat beer, which ranks up there with the best.

Has a cloudy amber/yellow color with some carbonation and a fruity/spice smell. Taste is also fruity/spice with malt and finishes with a nice wheat flavor. Overall a great wheat beer.

Pale golden colour, the usual cloudy appereance, impressive frothy head, really lasting. The usual malt-banana-clove aroma. The flavour is delicate, quite sweet and fruity (banana, apple and citrus). Slightly spicy finish. Nice German wheat!

Hazy, doughy color with a full, thick, creamy white head. Nice banana/yeast aroma and full, fresh flavor. A slight lemony flavor that was not too sour. An excellent beer for the price.
