| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 7, 2008 Hazy banana yellow with a medium slowly dissipating white head. Aroma of banana, toasted malts, fruit, mild clove and yeast. Taste of banana, wheat, apple, clove and lemon. Mildly grainy body has a semi-sweet and dry finish that’s also a bit spicy. I’m a bit shocked they retired this one as it seems like a quality effort. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Apr 24, 2008 The aroma of wheat is evident in this one, but the taste is not there. Colour is dark golden, big full white head. Aroma is mild, not a lot of wheat, soft fruit. Taste is a little unbalanced, finishes tart. a little dissapointing. unclemattie (2437), Georgia, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 1, 2008 Pours slightly cloudy and straw-colored with a thin white head. Aroma consists of yeast, banana, and spice. Up to this point, it’s much like other hefeweizens. It’s in the taste where it is different. The palate is a bit heavier than most hefeweizens and slightly oily. Malty and sweet describes the flavor with touches of banana, honey, and spice. Finishes clean. A great beer that is unfortunately retired. ChainGangGuy (2613), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Mar 16, 2008 Appearance: Pours a lightly hazy, coppery body with a tiny white head.
Smell: Mild aroma of wheat, yeast, maybe a touch of citrus. So light!
Taste: Flavor of malted wheat with a slight tanginess. Mildly sweet hint of honey. Banana, lemon, and spice present, but it’s all at rather muted levels. Finishes dry with some yeast lingering into the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Mild carbonation. Soft mouthfeel.
Drinkability: I could use a bit more carbonation, but overall it’s a pleasant hefe-lite weizen. shp555 (1690), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
