Bottle poured into Spiegelau hefeweizen glass. Pretty much a textbook Weissbier with the whole banana and clove deal very much in evidence. Head hasn’t stuck around as long as other Weissbiers that I’ve had but I am drinking it really cold. Delicious on this unnaturally warm Scottish evening.

My favorite beer There are quite a lot of wiesse beirs out there but this one is the best tasting one by far. I have a little cheat I do with the citrus add. I use rose's lime juice adds a bit more sweetness to the drink.

Still prefer Weihenstephan but this is a great go-to hefe. Smoother than Paulaner and very sessionable. Poured from a can into 500ml Weihenstephan hefe glass.

it pours a hazy straw yellow color with a foamy white head. The smell is of bananas but very light just enough to know it is there. The taste is of bananas and wheat with a nice amount of sweetness coming through. It has a good carbonation to it, overall a enjoyable hefewizen.
