[1] Review by lenusik from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (6/15/2008 9:49:05 PM)
"I've heard this described as the world's best selling wheat beer. This beer poured a cloudy golden orange colour with a thick white head. The aroma was wheaty with a little bit of banana and hops. The flavour was wheat, somewhat sweet, and a little hoppish presence."

[2] Review by jlozier from Lone Pine, CA, USA who has tried this beer once. (6/4/2008 9:51:57 PM)
"This is not quite what I thought it was going to be like. Smells of cloves, pretty strongly at that, and apricots. Tastes like more cloves, apricots, orange zest, and barely any hop backbone (which I rather expected), and a strong wheat flavor (a bit of that in the smell too). Pours a cloudy orange, with a thick, creamy head that lasts until the beer is gone. Leaves a few specks of lace/foam on the glass. Soft carbonation, creating a peach fuzz-like feeling. For the price, this wasn't bad at all; nevertheless, this is not a beer I would seek out to try again."

[3] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (3/27/2008 3:42:18 PM)
"Pours out in a cloudy dark yellow/pale orange colour with a rich creamy and lasting white foam. Banana, wheat, cloves and mandarin and lemon-peels in the spicy aroma. Medium-bodied with rounded flavours of banana, cloves, oranges, all-spice with mild notes of apricots and vanilla. Creamy mouthfeel despite the lively carbonation. Cloves, bananas, tangerines, lemon-peels and peaches in long fruity and juicy aftertaste. One of the better wheat beers I’ve sampled"

"Bottled. Hazy orange colour, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is honey, wheat and quite much bread. Also banana is present. Flavour is wheat, banana and slightly soapy notes. "

[5] Review by kinger from North Canton, OH, USA who has tried this beer once. (11/29/2007 8:27:34 PM)
"Single from the local shop produced on "07.06" if that means what I think it means this has held up rather well. Fresh aroma of mild banana, wheat, and clove. Typical scent for the style and real nice. Cloudy orange pour with a medium sized white head and decent lacing. Cloudy beer from the yeast swirl, vibrant and bright when held to the light. Medium body, not as creamy as I like my hefe's to be. Filling with a nice finish, very clean. Flavor mimics the aroma, solid wheat content dry and refreshing. Banana and spicy clove. Typical for the style, nice enjoyable beer here."
