Cloudy, tan colour w/ fluffy white head. Banana aroma. Palate has more banana, hint of vanilla. Quite sweet and very straightforward.

(growler at RBSG2003): Cloudy straw with medium white head. Aroma is medium sweet, banana, wheat. Taste is wheat, medium banana, nothing special. Light body.

Objectively speaking: Spectacularly well-constructed brewpub hefeweizen.
I like: Darker than most, aiming at Schneider’s Weisse territory. Authentic wheaty aroma. Flowery, cerealic and loaded with fresh, creamy bananas. More aromatic than most. Intense, captivating carbonation is spot on. The bubblegum growing flavours in the finish are taken aback by a final wave of wheat freshness.
I dislike: Perhaps a bit grainier than I prefer, but otherwise, this is amongst the best I’ve had outside Europe.

Draft... DLD06... Murky, golden ale with a large, creamy, white head. Good retention. Yeasty, citrusy nose with lots of clove and lemon peel. Some bubble gum. Citrusy, doughy, spicy flavor. Very tart and lemony. Light to medium-bodied and lightly creamy with lively carbonation. Finishes tangy, spicy and refreshing.

Pours a cloudy golden with a big frothy white head. Aroma is nice and yeasty with good hints of citrus and clove and sweet malted wheat. Body starts full and lightly sweet turning more dry and peppery toward the crisp finish. Could use a touch more sweetness, but otherwise well done to style.

Draft at brewpub. Poured cloudy yellow color with an average fizzy white head that mostly lasted with fair lacing. Moderate banana, clove and citrus aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture. Medium sweet flavor with a solid sweet wheat finish of moderate duration. Good refreshing brew.

A hazy orangey blonde with a thin white head. In aroma, a nice pungeant weizen with loads of cloves, solvent, banana cake. In mouth, a sweet weizen with cherry notes, banana esters, rather intense yet quaffable. On tap at brewpub, May 18 2009.

Growler fresh from the brewery: Hazy yellowish hue with an initial large frothy head which settles and produced a good lace. The aroma has a Weihenstephen character with lots of banana, pear, clove, pepper, floral, and dusty esters. The taste starts with a nice fruity component upfront supported directly by a heavy yeast character. The finish has some beautifully placed spice notes and even a touch of noble bitters as well. The feel is lively and refreshing as a hefe should be. As good and true weizen has can be found in America along with New Glarus. Piece knows how to wheat biers, get ya some, yummy!
