This is the classic German strain used to produce world class weizen beers where banana esters and clove phenolic aroma is required. Balanced with mild clove, depending on your wort profile, this strain will produce great beers. Stefon will produce a slightly higher level of acidity to give your beer a very crisp finish. Mildly underpitching will help increase the banana character.
