First beer I ever bought, and I still think it's great.

Pours a nice clear straw yellow colour (careful not to disturb the yeast, this is excellent with the yeast as well, and makes it cloudy). thick ever growing long lasting creamy white head. tons of carbonation, swirling and spiraling around in the beer.

Aroma is all about the yeast and bread. Fairly pungent and nice.

Taste is again a wollop of bread and yeast. There is a faint essence of apple (as in cider) in there as well. taste is crisp and somewhat savoury. finish is similar to what you would have after you ate a piece of fresh sourdough bread.

mouthfeel is medium bodied, with a nice carbonation presence. fits well with the flavour in not being over burdening.

This beer is refreshing. I like to pour a pint of it, drink for a bit, and then swish the rest around and pour it in with all the yeasty goodness. well recommended, especially if you like hefe-weizens.

Appears a cream yellow, cloudy, moderate head and some lacing. Smells of lemon and citrus and some banana estery notes. Mouth-feel is thinner than some weisse, with citrus, yeasty and wheaty notes, and some hinting hop bitterness, that never materializes. Not as meaty as some wheat beers. Tastes fade faster, but the effervescence of this beer makes it hit the spot. One of my favorite of the style and a beer I often drink, and would never pass up. 4.65 The Dyson came yesterday. We made money on books.

Pours a big fizzy head that quickly disappates. Hazy golden color. Taste is clean and crisp, slight papery taste, some banana and clove but not too strong. This beer has a nice dry sharp mouthfeel and finish, almost sparkling wine like. Overall a wonderful beer for the summer, good taste and very refreshing.
