Jun 11, 2008 Updated: Jul 26, 2008re-rate: a little drier, cleaner than last visit. Upgraded score accordingly. old rate: Dark tan colour and cloudy. Big banana with light spice and autolyzed yeast. Sweet and soft with an appley, clovey character. Underpinning of sweet malt and a hint of wheaty tartness. The finish is a bit cloying. I respect where they’re going here but I don’t know that I like it.

Jun 8, 2008 Updated: Aug 19, 2008.5 L draft at the Gordon Biersch Power and Light District - Kansas City. This was enjoyed on the patio on a nice summer afternoon with people watching a plenty (Rock Fest was that day - I’m glad I don’t have daughters. Seriously). Pour is cloudy cheddar cheese [tm] orange with a bunch of floaties and a pretty white head. Aroma of banana, wheat and bubble gum. Had a pretty generic "Hefe" nose. Taste reveals some citrus tartness, then the banana, wheat and bubble gum. Some spice and clove also is evident. Palate is medium, though still crisp and refreshing. This was a nice warm day patio beer.m

May 28, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Pours a nice cloudy orange color with particulates. Smells of citrus, wheat, yeast and candy. Flavor is tart and sweet, heavily dominated by an orange citrus flavor but also packing some wheat and spice in there. Finishes dry, tart and slightly bitter. Not my favorite hefe but it’s decent.

May 12, 2008 Draught, Miami location. Murky brownish-yellow and sludgy-looking. Slight diacetyl sourness, vanilla, and bubble gum. Flavors include an interesting hint of smoke. Sweet with lots of banana, candy, bubble gum. Sticky, thick palate. Too sweet, not good.

May 10, 2008 Sample at North Scottsdale location. Pours a cloudy light gold with white head an ok lacing. Nose is cloves, orange, banana and wheat. Palate is fairly sweet with cloves, hints of orange and banana and some additional spice I can’t place. Not my favorite style, but this isn’t a bad representative of it.
