Like many wheat beers, has a honey color to it and is a bit cloudy. It has a sharper but lighter aroma than other wheats.

[2] Review by tvail4 from Roswell, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/24/2009 1:02:48 AM)
"Huge white head that dissipates quickly, leaving nice white lacing. Hazy orange \ yellow, slight citrus smell that's just a little off. Medium bodied and very drinkable, with a decent, mildly bitter citrus taste."

[4] Review by bigred00 from buffalo, NY, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/31/2009 9:13:12 PM)
"Presentation: It was poured from a brown 1pt, .9oz bottle into a weizen glass. There is no freshness date but there is a bottle number of 6069 printed on the back.
Appearance: The body is cloudy and has an old gold or dark golden color with a tall white head on top. The head is thick and foamy, long lasting and makes spotty lacing on the glass.
Smell: The nose is sweet and full of fruity yeast with notes of banana, bubble gum and wheat malt.
Taste/Mouth: There are bready and yeast flavors up front with banana notes and a touch of clove coming through. The finish has pleasant tangy wheat and very mild hop bitterness which give it some dryness. The palate has a refreshing, easy drinking medium body with nice active carbonation and a lively crisp texture.
Notes: This is a world class beer from the oldest brewery in the world.

[5] Review by Mike T from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (8/7/2009 11:37:27 PM)
"Pours a cloudy orange/gold color with a good size white head. Head dissipates to a thin layer after a few minutes. Citrus aroma with some banana, sweet. Taste sweet at first with some nice fruity hints and it finishes with a light malt. Smooth and tasty. Nice medium to thin mouthfeel with medium carbonation."
