Hazy orange color with white head, aroma of banana and cloves, lightly bitter, medium sweetness, medium body.

Murky golden color with a bit of foam. Aroma has some toasted grains and overripe banana. Taste follows with the overripe banana note, slightly on the sweet side at first, quite malty, more balanced towards the finish. Light to medium body, high carbonation. Overall it's a sub par weizen.

Good German Weiss beer. Good hint of banana in the taste. Not too heavy and good throughout the entire glass from cold to warming at the end. Always love Weiss beers when I'm in Germany

 

I had a 0.5L bottle of this (followed by the weisse dunkel) with dinner in a Chinese restaurant in Munich. Odd, I wanted Bavarian food every night in Munich but a German associate wanted Chinese...

The appearance was great, hazy pale orange with a thick froth, I had to carefully pour several times to get all the beer in the glass. The aroma is all you need from a weisse beer, banana and cloves, so good. The taste was the same, with a nice creamy coating quality (and a buttery after-taste which I noticed in many weisse beers in Bavaria, don't remember that in the weisse beers at home). Excellent hefeweizen, this should be distributed in the States (at least near me).

500 ml bottle, bought at KaDeWe, Berlin, as Herrnbräu Hefe Weißbier Hell. Hazy pale golden colour, enormous lasting white head. LOVELY cloves aroma, notes of citrus and banana too. Flavour has distinct cloves notes, moderate lemony notes too. Moderate body but decent for a hefe, refreshing. An excellent beer for a hot day.

On tap at Waldgasthof Wildbad in Burgbernheim, Germany, June 3, 2005.

Over a hazy orange boday, a large rocky white head, that faded farily quickly, but left good lacing.

Aroma of hay and grass with a little pine resin. Only a hint of the clove or pepper I anticipated.

Taste of green apple, and a bit of banana, with a light sour finish.

Not what I was expecting -- pretty decent, but nothing to write home about.

I thoroughly enjoyed a few bottles of this stuff while soaking up the sun at the Biergarten at Unter den Linden in Rothenburg. It has a yellowish/golden color, is naturally cloudy mit der yeasties, and has a white, slow-to-leave head. The head is frothy, and sticks well in the glass. This Bier has a huge nose of clove and banana...pure delight. It's right there for you... Hell Yeah!! Body is just under medium, and it has a semi-creamy, bubbly/foamy mouthfeel. Banana, clove and yeast are nicely mingled together, and it has a wheaty, dry and crisp, clean finish. Quite pleasant! Zum Wohl!!!

This brew poured a hazy slightly cloudy softly carbonated light yellow orange brown body with a medium head of white bubbles that was mostly lasting. It had a mild wheat yeast aroma and a very mellow flavor of bread and yeast. It is extremely smooth with only a tingling initial mouthfeel that smoothens in its finish. I found myself drinking more and more of it to try and peg down the flavor. It is very subtle.

I had this a beer a little while back and didnt review it so here it goes,pours a hazy yellow/orange with a huge blooming,rocky head.The aroma is somewhat clovey and citruisy,the taste has a sweeter edge to it with some spiciness it seemed a little thin in the mouthfeel department,but drinkable.
