Commercial Description:
This coarse filtered wheat ale is fermented with a German yeast culture for a refreshingly light spiciness and hints of citrus fruit. A cloudy appearance and an immense creamy head are characteristic of this lightly hopped Bavarian brew.

Light pale yellow American light lager looking. Aroma is pleasant enough with a notes of honey and applider but also a hint of staleness. Very little bitterness with an extrememly light mouthfeel. Medium white head which is short lived. Disappointing as a wheat ale. Much more like a lager.

Bottle. Pours unclear yellow with a dense white head. Tastes and smells like lightly buttered popcorn. Hints at fruit, spice, and yeast. Also, the body is a bit watery. Sprecher makes some good beers, but this is not one of them.

Cloudy banana yellow with a sudsy white head that retreats slowly. Aroma of standard hefe fare with banana, clove, yeast and some toasted malt. Taste of banana, lemon, mild citrus and light clove. Body is a little thin and tart with a nice dry finish. One of the better Sprecher’s.

All the normal flavors of a hefe: banana, clover, and so on. But what throws me off a bit is the smokey tatste.
