On tap at the brewpub in Alpharetta - cloudy, murky medium golden pour with a crisp, yet fluffy white head. Clean, fragrant estery aroma, cloves, bubblegu - there are in there. Flavor of bananas, but not contrived - nice and natural. Extremely thick mouthfeel for a Hefe. Overall, an excellent Hefe - the North branch seems to be on the same high level as their original.

Sep 30, 2007 Tap @ 5 North. Poured a hazy yellow color with a large white head. Clove and light banana with a hint of lemon make up the aroma. The flavor was malty with banana and lemony wheat notes. Mild clove on the finish with a light body.

bigger body and more sweetness, the extra sweetness brings out more of the banana to balance the clove, even a bit more banana in the aroma creates the needed balance there, overall a very nice improvement over the original batch
