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.

"Disappointed... I hadnt tried this one earlier, gotcha:) Aromas of clove, fruit, wheat, and some citrus. Murky yellow body thin head, with some lace, mouthfeel is 'thick', for the style. Flavors of wheat, lemon, and spice, all were a bit more aggresive than in your standard hefe, i guess thats why its ranked as high as it is."

"Had this at Wagner's German Restaurant in Cresaptown, MD. Lots of white head and lacing...seemed to last at least 10 minutes or so. Nice and smooth for a wheat beer...not my favorite type but this one is an excellent example of the style. Slight flavor of banana comes through and a bit of citrus...my wife said it tasted like pickles. Label says that it was originally brewed in the year 1040...if that is true than it certainly doesn't need me to add my two cents."

"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."
