Yeast, berries, fruit, citrus and wheat is caressing your nose. Aromas are very distinct. Flavours is a little more bland. Spices, yeast, citrus and some banana. Is light fruity and dry in the end. This is one hell of a hefe weissbier. poolboy (66), Lafayette, Indiana, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 26, 2004 I was pretty excited about this beer. Starts with a big yeasty nose with hints of banana. Dark hazy khaki-orange color iwth a foamy, sticky head - not the most attractive beer. Thinish up front with some vanilla tones, but there is an intense bitter, dry end that lingers. Gritty and grassy in the sides of the mouth. Odd balance, but they get away with it. An experiment, maybe, but Weihenstephan gets away with it. YogiBeera (2437), Hamburg, Germany

Nice yeast, bread, vanilla and orange nose. Light koriander taste, doughy, vanilla and banana with nice hoppy intervalls. Yummie joss (3699), Garching b. München, Germany
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 29, 2004 Banana, peach and rye bread in the aroma.
Muddy orang color witha big creamy lacing head.
Banana and vanilla tastenotes, sparkly mouthfeel, slim and surprisingly dry body.
Light fruit and marcipan aftertaste.
Sidenote: Make sure not to confuse the beer with "Xan Wellness" which is alcoholfree version of this beer with fruit juice. Bov (5514), Bienne, Switzerland
