Bright aromatics of citrus, pear and apple marry with a light grainy note and a faint hint of spice. Although commonly associated with the Hefeweizen style, banana and clove characteristics were nearly completely absent. This is clearly more of an American Wheat than a German one. There is tartness up front with a slight spiciness and light lemon flavor before giving way to a huge sweetness in the finish, which nears cloying. It seems like the low carbonation enhances this sweetness. The wheat character in this beer is quite pleasant. All-in-all, this is a good beer for a hot summer day and would be much better if it could be made a little drier.
