500 ml can, poured in a Weissen-glass. Pours a hazy yellow golden colour, with a moderate two finger white head. Vivid carbination, small bubbles, fine foam, Biscuity smell, some sweetness, a bit of banana, little herby tanginess.
Smooth mouth feel, Very round, profound, bready tasts swith, develops sweet-sour fruity, green apple, with a tingly a bit more bitter aftertaste.

Excellent beer, great value for money.

Sort of citrusy, sort of tangy and sour. Goes down smoothly, kind of crisp, has a nice aftertaste, kind of lingers for a while but that tartness makes for an interesting aftertaste. It isn't a heavy flavor, it is kind of light, not hearty, but still a full beer. All around good beer

Steady head, banana and clove aroma. Slightly bitter taste. Amazing Bavarian Weißbier.

Fantastic beer, if you like the unique taste of hefeweizen! Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to find in upstate NY. Expiration date is on bottle which is not always the case for hefeweizens.

This is either my #1 or #2 favorite beer, nothing bad to say about it. This is a true hefeweizen and comes in usually a little cheaper than the other popular german hefeweizens. Very thick and foamy feel to it, with a strong banana bread flavor that is perfect for enjoying during the colder months.

Sweet and banana with a gentle coriander finish, might be even better then weihenstephaner weissbeer. Possibly the most appetising beer to look at in a glass in the world.

Outstanding, makes you wanna offer your wife to the Bavarian gods for gracing us with this electric Weissbier. Perfect crisp tasting of the sweet brothels of 1363, the year this great vessel of glory entered the world.

Poured into a chilled glass at about 38F. Pours a cloudy very light orange with an off-white head that sticks around for a while and leaves slight lacing. Smell is typical wheat and yeast, along with a slight musty bitterness that is actually quite pleasant. Taste is very nice with slight banana, wheat, vanilla and yeast. Very crisp and quite a dry finish. Carbonation is fairly high, which brings out the wheat character. Overall, great beer. I'll buy again if my beer store doesn't have Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier or Vitus .
