Crunchety good looks with the right turbidity presents a very nice first impression. Not overly thought out in the brewer’s brain just stickin’ to less is more. Less in this case lands in the realm of hard to tell it aint from Munich. We enjoy this repeatedly with overripe lemons right from our tree, a perfect mating. I’m drinkin’ this in any season.

Dominant bananna aroma and rich body. Slighlty watery body, but good on a hot day. Hold the lemon please. beerguy101 (3946), Newark, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 23, 2004 Light brown color, very hazy. Hugely lager very foamy head. Aroma is fruity, sweet and grassy. A medium bodied hefe. Malts are fruity and slightly sweet. Hops are mild and slightly sweet. Once you wait out the huge head on this beer, it a very worthwhile hefe. Touch of banana and clove and sweet spicy bread. Very smooth. Light and refreshing. A nice summer beer. A touch of citrus as well. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet. hayduke (1658), Eureka, California, USA

I drank it but had to order a second without the lemon so I could rate ti. It was golden yellow, and had only the slightest cloudiness being almost clear with a whtie head and minimal lacing . Nose was banana and somewhat sour. Mouthfeel was medium and flavor was yeasty, banana,. and cloves. Finish a little sweet but nice. A very good rendition of a German Hefe. joet (1709), Fulton, California, USA

Nice clean crisp taste, refreshing and citrus. aspidites (1274), manteca, California, USA
