Two finger white head atop a cloudy amber beer. A few minutes in the cap is a foamy ring and nice skim.
Medium aroma, full of clove, with lighter banana, even a touch of biscuit and herb,
Taste better than aroma, standard for style, bready, clove, touch of banana, hint of hop spice, tasty.
A bit overcarb for style, not as clean as you would like, finish ends with some rooty herbal thing going on. Worst feature
Kinda standard for style, but nowadays there are many of these floating around, better German imports, and the American versions fresher, and often much better due to the freshness factor. Not recommended.

Hazy yellow with a big white head. Aroma of wheat, banana, and pears. Wheat, yeast, and fruits in taste. Moderate sweet with light bitter notes in finish. Good German beer.

Purchased as a single 22oz bottle from The Fresh Market for $5.29. Poured into a hefe glass.
L - Super cloudy orange, with a three-finger pale white head. Head goes away rather quickly. Pretty alright lacing.
S - Freshly-baked bread, clove, orange peel. Little bit of banana.
T - Follows nose. A bit of earth & spice, like a white pepper note almost. Balanced throughout. Comes to a clean finish.
F - Medium-bodied, with plenty of carbonation. Creamy. Super drinkable. Refreshing.
O - Pretty good play of the style. Extremely refreshing. Hit the spot today. Definitely worth getting - will purchase again.

Outstanding indeed. Fact is, you probably are not worthy. Dump down the drain now.
