pickled (46), New Zealand Aug 29, 2008 2008 version. different label and booze level than quoted by ratebeer. bananas and candy with some spice notes. dry at the end. very drinkable. Alasdair (20), New Zealand Aug 24, 2008 Smells like caramelised bananas. Auburn, with a white head. Chocolate and then bananas, with a dy, slightly spicy finish. It got better as it warmed up and lost some carbonation. donfardz64 (116), Wellington, New Zealand Aug 20, 2008 Pours cloudy dark amber, off white smooth head. Aromas of banana, wheat, bubblegum, spice. Flavours of banana come through with come chocolate/caramel, malty bitterness, incredibly smooth palate. Each sip leaves you begging for more! TheGrandMaster (1495), Auckland, New Zealand Aug 11, 2008 Limited edition bottle 2008, pours a slightly cloudy brown with a foamy off-white head. A strong yeasty aroma, as you would expect from a here-weizen, with caramal and some cloves. Quite roasted and dry, with plenty of chocolate and caramal on the palate, and sweetish banana yeast. The finish is a touch thin, with a cleansing carbonation and a hint of tartness. bozoNZ (370), Christchurch, New Zealand Apr 2, 2007 500ml b/b Aug 07. Pours like a glass of coke with a persistant thin crema head. Caramello & banana aromas. Creamy, buttery palate, muted choc & a touch of wheat and spice but quite a round sweet finish with a final char note. Nice enough
