Oct 4, 2007 The aroma was bananas and clove with a somewhat odd toasty aspect. The beer arrived lightly cloudy pale goden with a well lastint white head which laced the glass from top to bottom. The flavor was mostly overripe bananas with a very light spice presence. The flavor was a bit too sweet and while never cloying did not have the expected dryness in the finish. The body was medium with a moderate carbontion but a bit low for a hefe. An ok pint, but nothing special.

Jul 27, 2007 Draft at Arundel Mills at the X-mas in July party. Pours a pale hazy straw golden with a white head. Very nice banana ester aroma, with just a subtle hint of clove. Body and texture is tad light for my tastes, but it is not watery. Flavor is simple, pale wheat malts and banana, with a good amount of residual sweetness. Clean and refreshing finish. This is not overly complex, but still quite good for a summer beer. Hefe purists may have some things to say, but I don’t rate to style. I rate on how much I enjoy the beer, and this was good.

Jul 12, 2007 On tap, Bowie location. From notes.
Very hazy, straw yellow color, with a fast fading head. Aromas are mostly of cloves, slight banana. Flavors are sharp, slightly astringent, mostly cloves, followed by slight banana & hops at the finish. Thin body, thin mouthfeel. OK beer, but needs more body.

Jun 13, 2007 Draft, Bowie location. Pours a very cloudy, golden-yellow color; white head with pleasant lacing. Scattered bananas and cloves in the aroma; reserved. Relaxed carbonation. Medium, chewy cloves and bananas in the mouthfeel: quite fruity; pleasant hefeweizen core, but lacking some body and density. Medium, clove and banana and citrus finish.
