650ml brown bottle. 2007. Dark gold/orange shade, quite cloudy/murky. Holds a small white head. Citrus (lemon) and fruit (light banana, fresh apple) aromas. Has vanilla, wheat, caramel, lemony accents, with mild alcohol, late leafy hop note. Actively carbonated, medium body.

Oct 6, 2008 Sparse aroma. Pours a very nice cloudy orange, yeast floaties. Flavour is tangerine-like, suprisingly hoppy. Body is above average for style, thick. An enjoyable beer, but I’m mixed on whether this is really a weizen.

Oct 4, 2008 Bottle. Yeast, banana, wheat/barley malt aroma. Hazy amber with moderate head. Wheat malt and light alcohol flavor - light hops finish. Really not much like a Hefe - just a hoppy wheat ale.

Sep 27, 2008 Cloudy amber colored pour with a good foamy head that lasts a while. Aroma of grain, yeast, hops, citrus and spice. Flavor is part hefe, part IPA. The yeast and citrus come through at first, but the hops and alcohol become quite strong on the finish. The hops also seem to mask some of the normal hefe characteristics. Not bad, but a little odd.

Sep 2, 2008 Compliments again, of doboy (Thanks ED!), along with DrBayern and Steve. Pours a medium amber, little to no foamy head. Aroma of wheat, grapefruits and some lemon. Flavour much of the same, a bit of light caramel and banana tones that enveloped a little dry hoppiness. A decent hefeweizen I geuss.

Aug 31, 2008 I grabbed this one in Wilmington to share with Buddy Steve, That wild and Crazy Celticbrew and the Poo-Ba of our band of idiots, Drbayern. This poured a light copper color. the hoppy aroma and surprisingly the alcohol (only 7,5%) caught the ole schnozz. It drank nicely with a good bite on the back side. The lacing as I drank was well above average.
