Clear golden-copper body with a very small white head. Aroma is a mix of dunkelweizen and Flemish sour. Surprisingly sour on the nose with even a touch of oak barrels smell. Unexpected. Fruity taste with bananas and a few drops of pomegranate flavour. Some cloves and zesty spices. Medium Tartness and a little sourness. Nice original dunkel. Pleasant and easy to drink. How easy to drink? All I had to do was to pour it in my mouth and swallow.

Bu au YeHa! 06. Brune caramelisé, peu de collet. Arome sucré malte végétal. Goût végétal ordinaire, faiblement épicé.

Pours lighter cloudy amber with light off-white head. Citrus hop aroma with a bit of yeastiness. Very similar to a Blue Moon imo.

Impressions from the YeHa! party:
-Ample foam dwindles into the cloudy beige-orange.
-Crunchy wheat provide some tartness, and the prevalent yeastiness sometimes evokes leafy, vegetal notes.
-Discreet banana esters are overcome by the muddled phenols.
-The lean body and energetic effervescence provide a very drinkable experience.
-If the aroma were more engaging, and the flavor profile a little cleaner, I would have enjoyed it a lot more, but as is I can only say I had a decent dunkelweizen, nothing more.

Bottle; no date.

Pours a cloudy amber with a white head. Smell bananas with citrus and some metallic aftertaste. Not the best beer by New Glarus but still better than the macros out there.

Bottle from SS. Pours amber with a white head. Smells of oranges, sugar, bananas, cloves, some woodsy character. Tastes of bananas, oranges, cloves, lemons. Finish is tarte and spicey.

Although I’m a huge fan of Weiss-styled beers, I did not care for this brew. It had a metallic, bitter after taste. If you like this style of beer, may I suggest trying Ayinger’s Ur-weiss instead. New Glarus used to make a fantastic weiss beer called Solstice Weiss (probably one of my favorites). Too bad that beer has now been retired.
