| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 17, 2008 Hazy golden coloured body with a very thin pure white head. Aroma of corn, lavender, yeast, curacao and some bananas - very nice! Medium-bodied; Strong yeast and bananas in the taste with wheat and a mild sweetness to finish it up. Aftertaste has definite citrus fwangs with a light yeastie feel and a mild spice. Overall, seemingly nice and refreshing, well-rounded and complex. Not the best I’ve had for the style, but not a bad beer and certainly above average - worth trying! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan on 03-August-2008, sampled at home in Washington on 16-October-2008. Gurst (338), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA

Prominent tastes are sweet malts (cookie and caramel) with a little bit of coriander and lemon thrown in. Aftertaste of spice and sugar lingers. jcwattsrugger (5333), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 10, 2008 12oz bottle, courtesy of Ryan. Thanks! Pours a slightly hazy golden-orange color; headless. Dust, bananas, and light cloves in the aroma; some honey and Belgian sugars; a bit muddled. Medium mouthfeel: light carbonation; honey, soft cloves and spicing; basic, and a touch watery at the edges; not really an exceptional hefeweizen at all. Medium finish: breadiness, toasty malts, and bananas; some dryness from the cloves at the far end.
