Bottled. A hazy light golden beer with a beige head. The aroma is sweet wheaty combined with light notes of citrus. The flavor is sweet with notes of citrus and wheat, leading to a dry wheaty finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Cloudy and golden beer. Nice smell of banana and clove. That continues nicely into the taste. Banana in the burp. The wheat qualities also contains a hint of citrus.

Appearance: Pours a hazy, yellow-orange body with a thin, bubbly, white head. Smell: Wheaty, tangy nose with notes of sliced lemons and bananas spiced with freshly-ground cloves. Taste: Tangy malted wheat with the customary, complimentary side flavors of banana, lemon, clove, and even vanilla all make an appearance. Middling sweetness throughout. Light hop character and bitterness. Meager spicy rye component. Dry, lemony finish. Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium-low carbonation. Drinkability: Summertime, and the drinking is easy.

Bottle from World Market Arlington. The aroma and appearance was fine for a hefeweizen altough this one was flat. That might have been a from bad bottle?? As far as flavor, I could not taste any of the banana or the bit of rye malt mentioned due to the overpowering clove flavor. I generally like wheat beers with the hefewiezen yeast but this just had too much clove flavor for me.

From a brown 12oz bottle - Pours a cloudy light pale color with almost no head and well below average carbonation. Smells of floral hops and very light malts. First sip is sweet and perfumy like with a very light malt backbone. Very light bodied, lightly hopped. Somewhat under carbonated. Bitter finish.

Hazy Orange with an excellent citrisy and floral aroma. Weak and dry on the palate with hardly any taste. I’m not sure why the ratings are so high.
