This refreshing wheat-based ale exhibits unique aromas of bananas and clove to spice up your senses. The lovely haze of this traditionally German “mi hefe” beer can be attributed to its unfiltered process, which requests a gentle rouse before drinking.

A: The beer is slightly hazy yellow in color and has a moderate amount of carbonation. It poured with a half finger high white head that slowly died down, leaving a thin head covering the surface and a wide collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of wheat are present in the nose along with strong notes of banana-like yeast.
T: The taste follows the smell, having a lot of flavors of wheat along with underlying notes of bananas from the yeast.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation. The unfiltered wheat adds a slight amount of "rawness" to the mouthfeel.
O: This hefeweizen has a lot of wheat in both the smell and taste compared to other beers in the style.
Serving type: can
