Jul 8, 2008 Draught @ Kaisla, Helsinki. Cloudy yellow color, lasting white head. Lightly spicy, sweet aroma. Well-balanced sweet wheat flavor with some citric notes, only a touch of banana and a sweet finish. Medium-high carbonation. Pretty good hefeweizen.

Jul 6, 2008 Purchased as Konig Ludwig Weissbeir. Pours and orange/gold color with a thick white head. Some white yeast sediment is evident in the pour. Aroma includes banana, cloves and citrus. Taste has hints of citrus and banana. Palate has a nice fizziness and the finish includes reminders of the cloves and other spices. One of my favorite Weisbiers.

Jun 29, 2008 This wheat had the typical banana/clove aroma but also had a citrus smell that very nice. The color looked as a wheat beer should but the body was thin when drank. Not a bad wheat but not the best.

Jun 28, 2008 Tall draft at Aurelio’s Pizza (Frankfort, IL). A Surprising addition to the draft menu at this fantastic pizza place. Poured a nice hazy yellow with a very inviting billowy white head that sticks around and laces. Aromas are very banana, clove, and notes of citrus. Taste is very similar. Refreshing, quenching with a nice more dominant citrusy lemon flavor (Surprising, since I used to consider this a largely banana Hefe). Sweet fruity esters are a bit light, but very enjoyable but aid in the refreshing feel. A very inviting Hefe that is good, but not in the top echelon.

Jun 25, 2008 Hazy yellow with aroma of yeast, wheat, sweet malts and banana. Taste of banana, citrus, lemon with a mild hop finish.

Jun 20, 2008 Konig Ludwig bottling. Light gold, surprisingly towards clear versus hazy, slight head lasted decently. Aroma was faintly of clove and a touch of banana. Flavor had a grainy wheat quality, some wateriness to it, and very light banana and clove notes. Carbonic bite. Not smooth, the esters were muted. Not particularly good, lacking character. I expected more.

Jun 14, 2008 Fresh cut wheat, very subtle.
Lime zest, peach + honey notes.
A hint of earthy yeast smell as well.
Leathery yeast flavor stands out first, along with the wheat, which seemed very subdued. Fairly sweet, mild citrus character. Some anise and clove/allspice in the finish.
Watery palate has a slick texture.
Warm gooey finish has a strange + satisfying bitterness that builds as you drink.
