Appearance - Pours a cloudy straw gold with two fingers of foamy white head.
Smell - banana, clove, yeast, bubble gum, spiciness from the yeast, wheat, orange peel.
Taste - Initially hit with the banana, clove, yeast, bubble gum and then goes into a light spiciness from the yeast, wheat and orange peel.
Mouthfeel - Light to medium bodied with light to moderate carbonation. Finishes dry with a pleasant hit from the yeast.
Overall - Grizzly Paw delivers a solid brew of the hefeweizen style. The aroma of the beer was solid. A refreshing hefeweizen, but just some minor flavour touch ups can make this one stand out from the crowd. Happy to see Grizzly Paw trying to craft new styles they haven't done before.

16oz glass at Beer Revolution EDMDT.
This beer appears a glassy, slightly hazy medium apricot amber hue, with a thin cap of wispy, fizzy off-white head, which leaves little more than a few specks of remote islet lace around the glass as things quickly drop away.
It smells of gritty wheat grain, earthy, spicy yeast, banana chips, and a fairly heady white pepper astringency. The taste is sweet, almost sugary wheat malt, banana pudding, laid-back musty yeast, a twinge of orange cream, and faint clove and black pepper spice notes.
The carbonation is decently active, in an edgy, flinty sort of manner, the body a sturdy medium weight, and actually quite smooth, with an additional bit of lilting creaminess. It finishes off-dry, the still somewhat over-sugared wheat malt ruling the day, the other essences mostly retreating into the shadows.
A pleasantly-rendered hefeweizen, the flavours all there with their A-game. Perhaps a bit lacking in the subtly of the best examples of the style, but that's OK, as the straight-up earnest character is evident everywhere here. Good stuff, on another splendid summer day, with tonight's thunderstorm warnings a mere trifle right now.
