Nov 20, 2008 Bottle @ Hamilton’s. Wow. Pours cloudy gold with a puffy white head and decent lacing. Lemons and wheat, coriander and clove, and a very strong and very nice current of pine and pepper. The taste is beyond great. Clean, crisp, sweet, bitter, citrus, candy; it had it all. The lemon-banana-wheat went so well with the mango-pineapple-grapefruit of the hops I can’t believe this has not been done before. I may have to drink Hamilton’s out of stock.

Apr 2, 2008 Cloudy pale body with a large, chunky white head, lasting with sticky lace. Big hoppy nose with sweet basil, spruce, cotton candy, bubblegum, honey and dough. Really nice fresh, raw hop scent. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter with banana, hay, basil, oregano, pine, flowers, clove and cotton candy. Medium/full body is soft with moderate carbonation.

May 26, 2008 1 beer in. Slight bread and spice aroma.
After taking a sip of this great beer, your mouth hungers for more. No residual taste or bitterness in this beer.
A welcome hop taste occurs as you take a swallow of this beer.
In the end, I am amazed at the alcohol content of this beer. No alcohol hotness. Just an easy drinking beer!

Nov 19, 2008 Bottle. <b>[thank you, asheft]</b>
Wonderful looks! Light hazy golden with a big, staying, frothy, off-white head. Great duration, lots of bubbles. Sublimely spicy and sweet wheaty aroma. A heavy load of coriander, wheat and lemony edge. Flowery and grassy hops. Fine, creamy mouthfeel with just the right amount of carbonation. Lovely flavour, lots of wheat sweetness, spicy balance, lightly vinious and a great, super-hoppy finish. Incredibly drinkable and lightly warming.

Jun 8, 2008 750 ml cork and caged bottle purchased at Spirits RB. Well after the Schneider-Brooklyner alcohol bomb I wasn’t expecting a lot. Well like lots of other ideas in my life I was way off. This is one fantastic beer. Aroma is excellent with a large citrus hop prescence, lively yeast, slight wheat bread, banana and slight spice, very nice. Medium bodied with lively carbonation and a great finish make this one refreshing brew. Flavor has lots of yeast, dough, tropical fruit and citrus. This is one very nice beer Mr. Oliver cheers well done Sir.

Jun 28, 2008 On tap in Blowing Rock, NC. Perfect color. Aroma is big on the hops. Fruity, nutty and spicy aroma. Complex to say the least. Initial sip is smooth. German flare: Banana and clove, but not coyingly sweet. Balance by the nuttiness and bite from the hops. The wheaty malt backbone rears it’s head and the dry, clean finish brings it home. No reason to elaborate further. This beer is a winner and I wish it was still around these here parts y’all....
