| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 20, 2005 Yet another growler ala BBB63. Copper color with a moderate off-white head. Aromas of caramel, sweet wheat, light chocolate and bananas foster. Flavors are full and sweet. Certainly sugar coated grapenuts with a few thin slices of bananas. Hints of spice and alcohol. A difficult style that has been hit well by this brewery.
