Draught. Colour - Pours a slightly hazed gold colour with a weak off-white head, and weak lacing. Armoa - Citrus aroma with hints of biscuit malt, earth hops, and maybe some melon. Palate - average for an APA. Flavour - Bitter all the way through. Overall. Not recommended

This is a dark golden pour, very murky, with a very generous head. Widely available in Ontario in both package and draught form. The aroma is dominated by wheat, banana, clove, and bubble gum. All the things that make Hefes enjoyable. This is sweeter than a Erdinger or a Weihenstephaner, but not as sweet as a Paulaner or a Hacker-Pschorr.

Bottle. Colour - cloudy orange gold, off-white cap, not very big, lacing was 'just alright'. Aroma - biscuity malts, light spices, and definite notes of grapefruit and orange. Mouthfeel - medium bodied, well carbonated. Flavour - nicely balanced between the biscuit maltiness and the bitter citrus hop punch. Not as bland as I was expecting it to be.

Bottle. Colour - transparent rust colour, good effervescence, off-white creamy head, good lacing. Aroma - light toasted caramel notes, some roasted malt, and a weak earthy hop presence. Mouthfeel - medium bodied, slight over carbonation. Flavour - not well balanced as the malty caramel sweetness dominates any hop presence that might be there.

Draught. Colour - a cloudy orange-gold pour, the cap is cream coloured, very bubbly, and the lacing is decent. Aroma - hop forward with lots of citrus, pine, and floral notes. some cereal malts are in the mix as well. Mouthfeel - medium bodied, well carbonated. Flavour - nicely balanced between the cereal malt sweetness and the citrusy hop bitterness. I liked it/
