Draught at Temple Bar Cinemall in Haifa. 5.3%. Cloudy reddish brown color with a medium, slightly creamy, beige head. Aroma has nice wheaty fruitiness with some banana and a bit of malt. Sweetish flavor with some banana, toasted bready malt, a bit of caramel, spicy notes and a slightly dry finish. Medium-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel. A really good Dunkelweizen.

Bottle. Banana, clove, and toffee wheat malt aroma. Cloudy brown color with an orange tint and moderate head. Toffee/caramel wheat malt and banana flavor with a hint of clove. An extremely well made dunkelweizen - excellent.

Bottle 50cl. Pours dark brown, big head, lively carbonation. Tastes of cloves, anise, spicecake. Very well done and yes! another please!

Grapefruit color with big head and floral, malty aroma. Flavor includes malt, bubble gum, and the requisite banana. Not too sweet, and there is a touch of bitter and sour as well. Very lively carbonation. Flavorful hefe that avoids being too dessert-like.

I bought this beer at an Italian restaurant in Heidelberg, and I thought it was one of the best in the region (west central Germany). Overall the most disappointing aspect of this beer was its extremely light color. Had kind of a dry palate as well. A good beer to have once I would say.

good hefe beer alot of cloves in this one and a grainy malt flavor underneath it all. dont see this in the states anymore
