| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 13, 2008 [Bottle] Pours a cloudy sort of gold with a moderate whitish head. Aroma is primarily wheat malt, with a little bit of spices and quite a bit of yeast. Flavor follows the aroma, and is quite malty with low hop bitterness, but the saaz make an appearance in the finish for sure. Nice and crisp with a medium mouthfeel. The alcohol is noted, but not overly present. Good stuff. tennisjoel (946), Shakopee, Minnesota, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 11, 2008 Bomber rating. Pour is a yellowish orange with just a dusting of white head. Nose is honey, cereal grain, not much banana/clove as in most traditional hefes. More honey in the flavor. Eh, I prefer more of the typical banana clove hefes. This one is okay, but isn’t knocking my socks off. maniac4016 (114), bill clinton, Iceland

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 6, 2008 From a 22-oz bomber shared by badgerben, pours a hazy golden blonde brew with a thick white head that literally stays throughout the pour. Aroma of heavy banana esters, cloves, coriander, some vanilla and marzipan. Taste is full bodied, some carbonation with a heavy banana ester and clove presence, some bubblegum, wheat malt and yeast. Finish remains thick with a mild spiced banana aftertaste that lingers after the finish. This is definitely the thickest hefe I’ve tried.
