| cloudy like a normal hefe but darker. Superb head retention probably aided by the excellent hefeweizen glass (500ml) which came with the promotional pack. Found it maltier/less sweet than a regular hefe, which suited me fine. A lovely beer, will buy again. | ||||

| correction to previous review whe I accidentally gave flavour rating out of 5 instead of 10. If you are reading, Nathan, an "edit" function for our own reviews would be handy. | ||||

Pours a hazy nut brown with a large tan head. Rich aromas of the yeast and malt. Very smooth beer with an apple fruitiness and a smooth finish. Light bodied but very enjoyable! |
