| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 9, 2004 Orange-gold in colour. Aroma of bananas, cloves and oranges. Flavour was quite wheaty, yeasty, some mustiness, citrus. Full bodied. Finishes very smooth, creamy, long and very refreshing. Medium-large body. This tasted really good after a very long walk from Central Park to the Blind Tiger Ale House. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 7, 2004 Draft at Half Time. Pours somewhat turbid dark straw colored with a medium white head. Aroma of malt, citrus, yeast, cloves. Tastes wheaty, yeasty, with much citrus, banana, and cloveyness at the finish. A very well made German hefe. thenick (746), North Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 14, 2008 Tap @ SPH. Pours that unmistakable cloudy golden-orange with a surprisingly small white head. Aroma is banana, clove, and slight vanilla characteristics as well. Flavor is spicy up front with noticeable cloves and a nice sweet finish with heavy notes of banana. Beer again remains smooth throughout, and while it did not exactly match the classic hefeweizen, it was more than worth the price of admission. fredandboboflo (1417), East Setauket, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Jun 26, 2008 On tap at the Publick House. Cloudy, cloudy, cloudy. Aroma of banana, reddish fruits, wheat, spices in the background. Flavor more of the same, maybe gets a bit tiring by the end. Full, creamy body. While a bit different from an authentic German Hefeweizen, a much more interesting attempt than I’ve come to expect from an American brewer. Sort of like wheat candy. beerbill (1976), Laurel, New York, USA

Arrived at the table a hazy gold with a thin white head. Very pleasant aroma of bananas along with some spice. Flavor was definitely wheaty with bananas and yeast as well. A bit of spice in there as well. Fairly smooth and medium bodied. Very good summer brew. mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 21, 2005 Very nice version of a Bavarian weiss indeed. Must say that some elements were lost on me as I had fallen to the "kid in a candy store" excitement and coupldn’t focus on the list of beers. Though I had intentionally waited to try the Cali styled IPA suggested, I had fallen pray to the Double White and fear it had an impact on my pallet. Not enough to keep me from enjoying this though.
