Pretty good American take on a German Hefeweizen. Had it on tap at the Sea Salt restaurant in Torrey Pines CA. Pours a hazy gold color, a little darker than the traditional straw color. Small white head (due to the dreaded frosted glass). Some lacing and less than average head retention. Aroma includes the usual, cloves, bananas, wheat bitterness and cardemom. The aroma is not as strong as the best hefes, but still true to style. Taste is a bit less astringent and strong as the good German here's but still true to style and quite tasty. Mouthfeel is rich enough, with nice wheat bitterness and a touch of astringency. I enjoyed it, great with food.

With a nice, opaque straw color, it boasts a nice concoction of bananas, clove and bubblegum flavors with just the right amount of mouthfeel. A benchmark for Hefeweizens outside of Germany that is true to the style! Another fantastic hefeweizen to recommend is "A Slice of Hefen" by La Cumbre Brewing Company in Albuquerque, NM.
