DSG (1501), Tel Aviv, Israel Jan 24, 2009 (11/5/08) Draught sample at the brewpub in San Diego. Cloudy yellow color. Aroma of banana, some phenolic notes, yeast and some spiciness. Sweet wheaty flavor with fruity esters and a bit of sourness. Medium-bodied. Refreshing. hopdog (5525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 8, 2008 Im putting this rating here...listed as the Harvest Wheat and the waitress said this was just another Hefe. Poured a medium yellow color with a small sized head. Aromas and tastes of some wheat, citrus, and bananas. Both on the weak and thin side like the body. JoeMcPhee (4893), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Nov 28, 2008 Hazy yellow beer with a creamy white head. Aroma is quite clean with only a very light fruitiness and only a light cloviness. There is a bit of light wheatiness as well. A touch of spice on the back. Fairly full malty palate. It’s okay, but it’s a little bit generic. doubleo (1096), San Diego, California, USA Oct 26, 2008 On-tap at the brewpub. Pours cloudy yellow orange with a medium sized, crisp white head, good lace. Smells yeasty and spicy, clove, with a hint of wheat/grain. Tastes about the same. Yeasty with light clove spiciness and some cereal malts and wheat. Medium body, vibrant carbonation. patrick767 (2016), fort wayne, Indiana, USA Jan 24, 2008 draft at the brewpub - Pours lightly hazy yellow with a thin white head. It has a citrus aroma, a sweet wheat malt and mild citrus taste, and a lively, light palate. I think it’s a pretty good hefeweizen. jcwattsrugger (5223), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Jan 19, 2008 on tap-pours a ring of white and hazy yellow color. Aroma is mild clove. Taste is clove, light spicy hops, wheat. decaturstevo (1971), decatur, Tennessee, USA Dec 28, 2007 A slightly hazed yellow gold pour with a lite creamy off white head. A bannana nose with hints of clove. Bannan is there along with a bit more flavors than the nose has on it. A fine finishing flavor with no off bitters. Carbonation is good and mouthfeel is surprisingly solid as well. Very good hefe very clean flavor and finish. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Dec 12, 2007 Name: El Hefe
