bkelley68 (467), Lakewood, Ohio, USA Jun 25, 2005 Tap @ Smokeless Joe. Nothing like appropriate glassware to enhance the experience. Very nice looking wheat beer, being golden and hazy with a creamy white head. Head faded to a thin veil on top of the beer. Textbook weizenbier nose of bananas, wheat, and cloves. Clovey aromas are a bit more prominent here, which is nice. Full bodied and smooth, like liquid banana bread. Lingering, yeasty finish. Quite tasty. gilvanblight (390), Windsor, Ontario, Canada Jun 4, 2005 Totally opaque golden yellow with a thin foamy head. Veryy mellow taste with a citrus tone which is not very deep but very flavorful. Crisp clean finish with a subtle aftertaste. Best weissbier I have tried to date. Very easy drinking. joeec5 (204), bayonne, New Jersey, USA Apr 15, 2005 tap @ beerbistro, toronto. orange and cloudy. creamy smooth. wheat with a bit of coriander and lemon peel. fruity nose with some bananas and cloves.
good MillStreetMan (152), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 5, 2005 Wow... this is a wheat beer that is almost chewy in its flavour. There is a depth and richness to this wheat that is not typically present in the style. The banana flavour is quite strong, but not the only one, with other elements such as cloves and other spices. This beer is equally appropriate in the winter or the summer, as it is refreshing, yet substantial. A classic. JadoreBlanche (114), London, Ontario, Canada Jan 2, 2005 On tap @ cafe Volo in toronto, with the ever great host Doug Shoemarker and My Mr.manning. Plae yellow hazy bodys. With thick white frothy head. Aromas of sour citrus sweet and spicy. Taste is citrusy, bitter (hoppy) and slight banana. Also some wheat characteristics. Smooth adn very refreshing! mustang3 (254), Whitby, Canada Jan 1, 2005 On tap @ Volo. Great hazy yellow colour with a moderate white head. Fantastic aroma of lemons, cloves and bananas. Flavour is the same with each seeming to take its turn to predominate, delicous. Yeats is present in the flavour and in the somewhat doughy mouthfeel. Excellent beer. DerWeg (748), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Nov 26, 2004 Updated: Jul 30, 2005Moderate head, lemony and yeast aroma. Solid cirtusy feel,zingy and almost thick, with a hint banana & some clove spice, balanced integrated sweetness and linger hint spice. Not over yeasty at all Paradoxically simple yet expressive. Seems a little different each time.
Had to re-rate this since it was sooo good for its style, I had a mediocre pint long ago and this last one compares to th best Germany trip pints I remember. OKBeer (1159), Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada Nov 15, 2004 On tap at Caffe Volo. Cloudy yellow gold colour with a lasting creamy and frothy white head. Banana, clove, and even some light bready notes in the aroma. Pronounced clove and banana flavours, plus lemon and some background orange peel. Light to medium bodied, very refreshing. Very tasty!
