Otto's Hefeweizen

It seems like every time I go to Otto's for food and beer, I forget to snap a pic of my beer before imbibing.  Oh well.  So you don't get to see any pretty pictures of the Hefeweizen I had at Otto's.  I'm sure you'll survive.

Vittles:
Hefeweizen
5% abv

Score:
Appearance: 8/10
Aroma: 21/25
Taste: 33/40
Mouthfeel: 8/10
Style: 5/5
Drinkability: 8/10
Overall: 83/100

Impression:
The beer pours a cloudy golden straw color, but by the time the beer got to my table, there was only a slim ring of a nearly-white head left.  The aroma was largely wheat, clove, and banana, with some herbal and earthy notes underneath.  The flavors followed nicely, with a bit of lemon and some spiciness added in.  A medium body and a somewhat dry finish round it all out very well.  This is one of my favorite kinds of beer, especially in the summer months, and Otto's does a fairly good job on this style.

Cheers!
