Sep 23, 2009 Bottle at a ucla game. Aroma of sweet malt and banana with a bit of spice. Color was a darkish gold. Flavor was similar to the aroma with some ok wheat notes. A decent, but forgettable beer.

Aug 21, 2009 Bottle from becmo. Slightly cloudy amber pour. Sweet mlat, bubble gum, banana, and wheat. Not very interesting. The mouthfeel is too spritzy, I prefer hefe to have a soft creamier mouthfeel.

Aug 10, 2009 A $3.49 bomber I am not too hopeful for. Pours with a very minimal, quick to fade white head over a murky yellow body. Aroma of vanilla, bubblegum, caramel, banana, maraschino cherry, bitter hops and wheat. Taste is bland wheat, and mild hop flavors, with a plastic note and a ton of yeast based esters. Kind of boring. Medium viscosity, with kind of sharp bubbles. Mediocre.

Jul 15, 2009 22 oz. Pours a cloudy pale golden with average head. aAoma is banana,clove and wheat. Taste is about the same with mild citrus hops to back it up. Its not bad. At 2.99 for a bomber its worth a try. perfect for a hot summer day.

Jun 28, 2009 Tasted at the San Diego International Beer Festival. Cloudy yellow with a creamy white head. Earthy hops aroma and a banana bread taste with malty notes.

May 14, 2009 hey Chris, thank you kindly! Attractive vanilla aroma with some fuminess in there. Nice light brown hefe pour with sediment on the bottom. Fine minimalist carbonation on the palate. Flavors initially seem somewhat belgian. More dubbel-ish than the 5% stated here. Alky finish. Yes I guess this is somewhat an ale biased hefe.

Apr 6, 2009 Maybe a little too highly carbonated on tap at the LA Beer fest. Its my only complaint for this hefe with massive banana and clove flavors. Lovely yeasty spiciness and the classic cloudy yellow color with a thick white head.

Dec 10, 2008 22oz bottle. Poured a medium and cloudy yellowish-gloden color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of cloves, bananas, lighter wheat, and lighter yeastiness. Not a bad smelling hefe. Tastes of wheat, cloves, bananas, and some citrus. The tastes were a little bit of a let down vs the aromas - they just did not seem to work well together.
