[1] Review by pfoxyjohn from Watertown, WI, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/18/2008 11:03:12 AM)
"Sampled 'vom Fass' at Binding's Sachsenhauser Warte in Frankfurt. An itriguing looking beer; cloudy golden, fading to lemon-yellow at the edges of the base of the glass. The creamy white head deposited a fair amount of lace on the "spritzig obergarig"-emblazoned weiss glass. Lively nose of fruit and yeast. Mouthfeel is spritzy and tangy, but thin. Flavors of lemon, banana, and yeast - although reserved. Light and lively, but the finish is bland."

"Nice rich white foam, darkish yellow color. In aroma, there's strong citrus and some wheat. Taste is smooth, round and refreshing, nicelt wheaty. Aftertaste is also pretty smooth and refreshing."

[3] Review by vanderla from Sydney, Australia who has tried this beer many times. (8/2/2006 3:32:07 AM)
"Profuse head, moderate bead - remains to end of glass.
Cloudy amber. Probably should be hazier, but I'm going to harvest the yeast, so don't want it mixed in.
Banana bread nose, touch of green herb hop aroma
Tangy taste with ongoing banana.... touch of caramalt...?... with good, wheat malt body and long clove aftertaste. A touch cloying, but with a drawnout bitterness to offset.
If I close my eyes, I can draw parallels to Matilda Bay Redback with the ubiquitous slice of lemon in it, but this beer has enough tartness on its own, thankfully, not to justify such measures (if such measures are ever justifiable...)
Would be good with cold cooked prawns or bugs."

[4] Review by biegaman from Toronto, Canada who has tried this beer once. (2/26/2006 1:31:13 PM)
"Sampled with the other LCBO seasonal wheat beers. This one finished near the bottom according to my taste buds. Something a little dull. Wheat didn't come through as clearly and tasty as many others. Same for the aroma which seemed offcenter. There are better German wheat beers, though this is still enjoyable. "

"there really is no flavour to this. it's not really watery, but is way too lite, leaving little to no taste. given that it's a german wheat, i am very dissapointed."
