Dec 6, 2006 I know that RateBeer says "German Hefeweizen" and far be it for me to dispute their style guide. I’ve never met an American wheat beer that is a true interpretation of the real deal. Troeg’s puts forth a faith effort, though, and is one of the tastier American-styled wheats I’ve tasted. Decent body (unfiltered but not all that heavy) with a good amount of clove in the aroma. Slightly acidic, but in a refreshing sort of way. Clove, banana, gumball, black pepper. I’m fairly impressed.

Nov 30, 2006 Bottle. Hazy yellow with medium head. The standard clove yeast smell. Taste was cloves, pils malt, a little banana. Light to medium body. Lively carbonation. A pretty good beer for a hefeweizen.

Nov 8, 2006 Bottle from Jeff (doclock) Thanks! Pours out a bright yellow color with a white head initially which gives way to no head at all, kind of like this old girl friend i had that wasnt worth a shit. Smell is mostly banana, clove, some hops. Taste is smooth and fruity very full of bananas and lemons. Possibly even some orange. A pretty good take on a hefe actually. Decent stuff.

Nov 4, 2006 Bottle. Decent, but frankly didn’t think it was that spectacular. Very grainy, with some banana and lemon.

Oct 29, 2006 bottle-sampled at the brickskellar in DC. lighty hazy yellow with a fizzy white head. nose is banana esters and light grains. banana, grains and lemon on the flavors. pretty basic but solid rendition of a hefe. palate is solid and not as carbonated as expected. could be a good session beer here in DC for me. would like to try it more fresh someday.
