I received this beer as a part of a beer of the month club. I don't normally like wheat beers all that much, but this is one great beer.

This beer pours with a creamy white head that is about one finger wide, and it disappears quickly. The beer has a straw color and is hazy like most wheat beers.

The aroma has hints of bananas and cloves with a bit of lemon.

The initial taste is wheat, wheat, and more wheat, but the taste of bananas and cloves are very noticible. This is followed by a full wheat flavor and has a good deal of spicyness. The thing that makes this beer so good is how well all of the flavors are balanced. It finishes with (you guessed it) wheat, but a nice hint of lemon as well.

The body of the beer is very light and dry. Perfect for summer! I would reccomend it to anyone whether you like wheat beers or not.

Pours an opaque medium straw producing slightly more than 1+ finger of finely bubbled, foamy, white head that leaves minimal but streaky lace. Aroma is thin banana, clove and yeast. Taste is wheat, yeasty clove & banana & a nice, spicy pepper bite from mid-sip that does not fade until well into the aftertaste. Finish has an ashy-mineral taste. Mouthfeel is light-medium bodied with high carbonation, crisp & sharp with pepper spice but smooth & drinkable. This is more like a Witbier than a Hefeweizen. Good but not great.

A: The beer is slightly hazy pale yellow in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down, leaving some specks of bubbles on the surface and a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of bananas are present in the nose along with some hints of cloves.
T: The taste follows the smell, having lots of flavors of bananas with notes of wheat and hints of cloves.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This hefeweizen has a strong dose of bananas in both the smell and taste. It's a good representation of the style.

Poured from 11.2 green bottle into a tulip, minimal head no lacing. Looks pale hay colored yellow in the glass. Opaque with a good bit of yeast still in suspension. Smells mainly of esters, clove, banana and a little fruitiness. Taste initially of banana with the clove coming up in the middle with a slight fruity finish with a touch of spice. Finish is not overly dry and the beer has a pretty nice mouthfeel.
