Poured a golden hazy orange with a nice creamy one fingered head. There was no carbonation at all and the head dissipated to an even, thin layer of foam across the top and stays that way. Beer smells of breadiness, malt, grass, lemons, spices. As most wheat beers, this is chewy, with a light to medium body. Carbonation dances on the tongue. Wheat, yeast and breadiness stimulates the palate throughout the entire sip while the hops hit the back of the tongue at the end. Have been to the Schneiderweisse beer haus a few times in Munich and this one is definitely an odd duck, so to speak. Not typical of the style, but very unique in flavor, and very drinkable at a decieving 8.5%. I've been away from wheat beers for a LONG time, but this one has the capability to suck me back in right away.

Poured from bottle into tulip. Purchased at Grassroots Market in Jacksonville, FL on business. Pour was very un-eventful...meh. Hazy golden straw color (nice) no head (bad) ...but it is 8.2abv...so...
Smell is good - not mind blowing. Hoppy hefe. Noble hops meet banana and clove crispness. Its actually more hops than I would have thought.
Taste is firstly bitter hop and herbal grassy notes - then some underlying hefe typical banana and clove, but its crisp yet heavy...some spices sine through. Its super easy to drink and pleasant and very very different. Well worth a buy - especially for $5. There is very little you can fault here; and a lot to gain. Well worth it.

A - Golden/Brown, 2" thick fluffy white head, patchy lacing, lots of yeast, very hazy

S - huge wheat, citrus, sweet carmel, chewy bubblegum

T - wheat, citrus, sweet carmel malt, bitter level was low (2/10)

M - med/thick body, high viscosity, frothy

O - Interesting taste. but i would say the nose is better than the taste. Nose is huge and awesome. Was a bit thinner than i expected. Alcohol is hidden so, so well. really sweet and carmely. not sure if i like the overly sweet wheat/carmel taste.

poured into a weizen glass

a: hazy golden orange with a 2/3 finger white head. This looks great. Poured in the yeast and got a ton of floaters in here

s: sugary yeast, strawberry, banana, pear, raw sweet grapefruit. super super fruity. maybe a hint wheat

t: sweet juicy pears, strawberry, sweet cherry right away, a little bit of yeast spice followed by a real nice citrus wheat and sweet malt flavor. this has a fresh bread flavor that then fades into something like a blood orange. final taste is a hint of grapefruit and creamy grain/grass. the 8.2% is hidden quite well. i'm sitting outside drinking this now on a spring day and it just feels right.

m: interesting. its pretty light, but has a creaminess to it that makes it a real smooth drinker

o: this is action packed with sweet fruit and yeast flavor and balanced with nice wheat and malt components. at 8.2% this is dangerously drinkable
