| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 6, 2009 Draft. Pours a hazy golden color. Intense aroma of yeast, clove, coriander, banana, cinnamon, and sweet malt. Nice flavor with a light hoppiness in the finish. The 8.5% hides itself pretty well. TampaBrew (865), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 3, 2009 Poured gold. Nose is a spice cabinet mixed with belgian yeast spices and sweet malt. Flavor is loads of spice, hints of heat, cinnamon, banana, cloves. Too many spices. Not my bag. beersearcher (260), Glendale, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 29, 2009 Wow. I thought this would be a bad combo but it really works. The spices balance out so you don’t get a huge hit of any and it plays well with the base beer. stobbe74 (714), Denmark
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Sep 28, 2009 Sampled at DØE Beerfestival 2009, Valby. Poured and presented by Mr. Garrett Oliver himself. Pours a clear yellow beer with a white head. Very good appearance. The aroma is spices, sweetness and coconut. The flavor is complex and balanced. The palate is nice spiced and has a slight hint of chili. Overall a very good beer. gservo (21), New Jersey, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 23, 2009 I was not a big fan of this beer, the spice, hell maybe the temperature it was served , all did not have a harmony, it was cluttered with flavor OldGrowth (1426), North Carolina, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 20, 2009 Snifter @ Tyler’s Apex. Good aroma, sweet, spice. Wheat, ton of spice, coriander cinnamon. Orangy gold color, good head, faded to a ring, spotty lace. Spiced yeasty flavor, like aroma, maybe more of the yeast than wheat. Has a sharp bite about it. Lite body, creamy mouthfeel, dry finish. Maybe it was my mood, but this hit the spot, a lot going on with this one. mabel (2626), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Clear, orange amber body with quick white bubbles. More grainy cracked wheat malt flavour has a slightly fruity strawberry aftertaste. Medium body. Very drinkable, nice smooth balance throughout.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 20, 2009 Pours clear golden, semi-thick white microscopic bubbled head. Yeast and spicy nose...the cinamon and coriander stand out most...as does the belgian yeast banana-like esters. Yeasty and spicey flavors, but more yeast than spicey..loads of banana, cinamon, clove...medium body, firm carbonation..chalky in the mouth in the finish...chalky banana-type shit....a bit hot in the finish as well. Warming. Another yeast spice bomb, meh’
