May 16, 2009 Oh good lord this is beautiful! Cloudy and orange with an enormous white cloud for a head. Banana and clove all up in my nose with a faint hint of peach and pineapple. The flavor has everything you expect from a heffe with just a subtle note of US hops in the background. One of the better wheat beers around I think.

May 15, 2009 New Glarus sets the bar when it comes to American Wheat Ales. This is no exception. Aroma is similar to that of Chouffe Houblin Doublin or Hopfen Weisse. Not as alcoholic as those two, so picture a bit more mellow. This is an excellent brew, which I expected. Easily a beer I’d buy regularly if I lived in Wisconsin.

May 14, 2009 Banana and clove with a firm hop background aroma. Strong flavor of spices and hops and fairly richly bodied. Really nice.

May 13, 2009 Very nice pour. Slightly hazy gold with a thick white, foamy head. Aroma is wheat, light citrus, and clove. Flavor is sweet but not too sweet...has some bitterness to balance. Palate is spicy and tangy. Good wheat ale but a little too carbonated perhaps.

May 11, 2009 Courtesy fantomas23. This one pours a very hazy, golden yellow color with a huge, foamy white head that slowly recedes to rings of lacing around the glass. The aroma is nice and shows wheat, clove, banana, cinnamon, to go with some citrus and floral hops. The flavor follows with the fresh wheat, sweet cinnamon and clove spices, to go along with the bitterness of the citrus and floral hops. Newly ripened bananas add to the fruity flavor provide just enough sweetness. Medium bodied with a lot of carbonation that leads to a dry, bitter finish. Maybe a touch too much carbonation. This is a another great wheat beer from New Glarus. Nobody does wheat beers like Dan Carey does.

May 11, 2009 Bottle: Very cloudy, pale straw yellow color with a big frothy white head. Aroma is dominated by cloves with hints of citrus and banana bread. There’s alot of different spices upon initial taste, but they actually fade and mesh quite well the more you drink. Yeast and bubblegum flavors also present. Light to medium body with lively carbonation. Quite a different take on the style.
