A full flavour hefeweizen. Thick mouthfeel and full of bannana flavour and aroma. If you like your hefe bannana like, this one is one to have. Great carbonation. A fruit shake with thick head and lace.

Amber Marigold color that is slightly cloudy. Medium head that dissipates quite quickly and leaves little lacing on the glass. Bitter taste in the spirit of a hefe with a palette of little floral spicing, tart and semi-dry with a hint of sweetness. Nose is of tart grapes, a white zinfindale? Mouth feel is smooth and rich, but a little dry. Very Drinkable. Defiantly an excellent brew, topples last years showing. I can’t wait to try this years Belgian Wit.

8/18/07 - Sampler at pub. Good hefe nose, banana and clove. Same with the taste. Banana and clove explode in your mouth. Can tell its very fresh. Nice lacing, even after sitting in a sampler glass for a while. Probably one of the best hefe’s I’ve had.

Light aroma of spicy cloves, wheat, and plantain chips. Colour is a cloudy yellow with nice large white head. Tastes of corn, malts, and plantain. Good beer!

Bottle pours a hazy golden with a medium bubbly white head. Aroma of ripe bananas, clove, cereal grains, wheat and citrus notes. Flavor of the same, more citrus in the flavor. Well done fresh and refreshing.

I am a bit of a wheat fan so I was a bit biased in favor of this one. Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a bright golden color with a medium sized white head. The aroma is wheaty and grainy with light spicy and fruity undertones. The flavor is yeasty and bready with a nice mix of citrus and bubblegum. The body is surprisingly thick. A nice hefe.

On tap at the brewpub. Aroma yields a particularly chemical nose, with perky clove candy, rich fruity blossoms and nips of floor cleaning solution and band aids. A bit lively for me, but nice to see a strong aroma. Pours a clouded sunset orange, leaning toward and artificial shade of the color. Velvet foam sidles down the glass and forms into a vacuous pool. Flavor speaks of richness, but finds balance in a tart, wheat soda. There’s a bubbly tingle that blends with a the curt acidity in the beer, keeping this one a little more towards a sipper. Reaching out for hops, I find only peach nectar and light spice in the smack. I figured something was off, but I enjoyed the lactic tang in wheat. It came out as confused but still drinkable and not nasty.
