Apr 4, 2002 A dense white head on a slightly hazy copper/gold body. Malty, spicy aroma with a hint of noble hops. Medium body and a lasting complex flavor. A solid malty base with notes of clove, apple, nuttiness and restrained banana from the brewery’s exclusive yeast strain. Better than the German wheats because you can get it fresh, at the peak of flavor. Outstanding brew.

Oct 12, 2003 One of my favorites. It has the flavor of clove and the after eddects of banana. Very pleasant. Typical weiss beer, but very good. Smooth finish in your mouth. Great wheat beer.

Oct 2, 2001 Really quite spectacular. Loads of clove, apple, and a bit of banana in the flavor. Very crisp. Appearance-wise, a beautiful golden color with a full head. Excellent wheat.

Oct 5, 2006 Updated: Nov 4, 2006Sampled on draft at the HPWBC tasting room. A rather outstanding take on the style, pouring the usual golden color with a haziness and a decent initial head. Aroma was initially bananas and cloves, but the bananas resided and a wheatiness emerged before long. The flavor was quite excellent, only light bananas, gentle cloves, light yeast, and a touch of hops in the finish, perhaps the most drinkable hefeweizen I’ve ever had? A somewhat dry/bitter (although not overdone) mouthfeel/finish, quite nice. Nothing close to too sweet or cloying, this could be sessioned. Nice job by HPWBC! Grabbed a sixer to take w/ me. Re-rate from the six pack, I stand by my original rating, just such a pleasant beer and stateside example of a hefe. The phenolic / hoppy spicey flavor is refreshing, crisp, and delightful. There is also a touch of underlying wheat character that shows through gently as it warms.

May 5, 2004 Big yeasty lemon citrus aroma. Taste is a beautiful wheat, sweet bubblegum and light. Finishes brilliantly with malt without the big effervescent feel I usually get with hefes.

Jun 24, 2002 Very fruity esters with bananas and clove weighing heavy on the palate. Hazy, golden appearance with a low hopfeel. Good head retention. A great USA interpretation of a German Hefeweizen. Thanks for the tip VENOM.
