Jun 18, 2007 Bottle. Aptly named; crystal clear, sparkling apple juice appearance. Wheaties and banana and spices aroma. Wheat, fruit, sweet/tart flavor. Tastes much like the non-filtered variety but lacks something. The palate is a bit thin, though it is thirst quenching.

Jun 18, 2007 Updated: Dec 19, 2007500 ml bottle. Pour is clear golden with a big , frothy white head. Lots of carbonation bubbles. Aroma is a wheat, banana, clove, bubblegum and candy sugar (purple nerds?) . Tons going on in the nose, and perhaps a bit too much. The taste has mostly sugar up front, though the wheat body and banana flavors come through towards the finish. Pretty quick and clean finish. Overall, nothing too special in this one, though it was refreshing, and was really good with Schnitzel.

Jun 16, 2007 It’s no surprise that this was voted the winner at the Australian beer awards this year. Not because it is an outstanding beer, but because it’s a beer that looks like every yobbos favourite pale lager while actually having a decent taste. This poured with a medium sized head and had huge carbonation bubbles flying from the bottom of the glass to keep it there as long as it could. Plenty of banana in the aroma, but not much clove until tasting. A rounded creamy mouthfeel that serves to exacerbate the sweet flavour. There’s a touch of bitterness there too, but it’s barely discernable. Definitely one to try again in the summer months given it’s reasonably priced, but nothing to rush back for.

Jun 13, 2007 Really fizzy, goes down easily. However, it lacks a lot of the awesome yeasty flavor from the standard Hefeweizen.

Jun 11, 2007 Very similar to their hefe, big ol banana and clove dominate the aroma and flavor. Slightly lighter on the palate, but still retains that high carbonation, big crispness on the palate giving it a lot of personality.

Jun 10, 2007 500ml Bottle (Gallows Bird, Espoo)
Amyl acetate, expanding into banana, and floral. Taste is crisp and refreshing, but shows a lack of fullness due to the filtering.

Jun 9, 2007 Clear yellow, small bubbly head. Very light aroma with a touch of grassy, spicy noble hops. Thin in flavor, fairly sweet and malty. A decent bit of sting from the CO2. Rather boring.
