Too dark, too bitter, too much hop flavor and aroma, too high in gravity.
Some people enjoy the late hop additions in a weizen, but if you are trying
to make it to style or according to German tradition, the late hops don't
belong, so get rid of the Saaz. Other than that, if you tone everything
else down just a tad, or make 6 gallons instead of 5 gallons, you'll be
closer to the mark.

Be sure to use a Bavarian Weizen yeast, and ferment at about 68 F for the
best balance of clove to banana characteristics. Warmer will yield more
banana, cooler will yield more clove.
