Mar 22, 2009 Wheaty, almost witbier smell. Cloudy golden look. Thick head that subsides quickly. It sticks to the glass nicely. There is a citrus flavor with a hint of cinnamon that is barely noticeable, but complex.

Mar 22, 2009 I was looking forward to this, based on how awesome most of their wheat beers are. This is good, but I’m not really into it. Lots of hops. Pine, and some wheat in the aroma. Light color color and a little cloudy. A little bit sweet, and a full palate, with lots of New Glarus house yeast character.

Mar 21, 2009 Bottle.Pours a hazy golden color with a big full fluffy white head. Aroma of spices, banana, cloves, and yeast. Taste is bitter sweet from the spices and citrus. It has a nice smooth creamy flavor that ends with a dry slight tart hop finish. Very nice!

Mar 21, 2009 Bottle from Ryan. Ryan has been raving about this beer for the past few months, so he finally sent me some of it. Glad to be able to have some of this. I swear if I moved to Wisconsin I would drink my weight in New Glarus beer. Pours out a somewhat clear golden color with a nice white head on it. Smell is very yeasty, full of some banana. Interesting smell. Taste is smooth and it has an odd flavor that caught me off gaurd. I could not pick it out, but after a while I got used to it. It isnt a bad flavor, but its something off. No points lost for it though, because I think it was just me. Full of some banana and wheat, very good stuff. I am glad I have a bunch more of these.

Mar 21, 2009 Bottle shared by goldtwins. Very pale yellow-straw colour. Aroma is very fruity. Loads of banana and apricot flavour over a fresh wheaty character. There is lots of intense bubble gum sweetness as well over the heavy citrus notes. Fresh and fairly hoppy as well with a lot of amarillo citrus notes. Fresh, wheaty and very tasty. Quite a lovely brew.

Mar 20, 2009 thanks guerinfbfan. actually a little ugly. 2 inch thick head. slightly hazy rust brown. pretty good, classic aroma. lots of bananas and bread. i mean, it’s basically a hefeweizen. not sure why it’s listed as a wheat. a bit of light fruity hops as well. surprisingly mild flavor. most of the american hefeweizens i’ve had from good breweries have been boldly flavorful. this is not the case here. makes it more drinkable, perhaps. has some flavor notes that remind me of a tripel. somewhat thin, but very carbonated. not a huge fan.

Mar 20, 2009 Bottle. Pours with about an inch of foamy head that last for a while. Looks very hazy and almost orange in the glass. Aroma is a bit of citrus and some clove.

Mar 19, 2009 Pours murky orange with a tall creamy head that has really good retention and leaves beautiful lacing. Aroma is citrus, berry flavored candy, wheat, buttered bread and a good dose of spice notes. Flavor is much the same with a little more apparent fresh citrus hops and heavier spice. This is a really great beer I could drink it every day.
