Slightly darker than I might expect - golden, but not very pale. Snow-white head. Bit cloudy as the name would suggest. Nice dense lacing. Looks pleasant.
Smells like those banana lollies I used to get in Target. Intense banana ester and a slight hint of yeast to blend. Predictable, but decent.
Wow, again with a pretty intense kind of banana character. A good dose of wheat malt on the front with a slightly tannic finish, a bit acidic anyway. Mouthfeel is fairly smooth but with a very grating edge towards the back.
Fairly bland weizen, really.

Tasted at the Australian Beer Festival.
Looking more krystal then hefe, it has strong aromas of green banana, with subtle clove in there. The banana theme continues on the palate, but more like banana lolly than banana fruit. Aftertaste somewhat medicinal.
