Tons of banana, clove, and brown sugar. Honey-baked biscuit, yeast, and crushed wheat are present as well. Just a bit too sweet for me...cloying. ratman197 (3250), Arvada, Colorado, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 15, 2009 Bottle; these guys finally found it in their souls to not put wax on their swing-top bottles. Pours hazy orange with a large, frothy, off-white head, somewhat diminishing with fair lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (bread, cookie, straw, caramel), light hop (herbs), average yeast (dough, horse blanket) with notes of clove, cooked banana, brown sugar, and vanilla. Full bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation, and an astringent finish. Long duration, moderate sweetness, acidity, and bitterness. jbye4334 (710), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 1, 2009 1 qt, 1.8 oz bottle with swing top (no wax YEA). Color is a hazy orange with some red tones. Carbonation is good producing a big frothy head that falls quickly. Aroma has a big yeast scent with sweet malt on the back. Taste is creamy and sweet. Starting with a medium body it goes down easy with a creamy feel. Finish is a sweet toasted taffy taste with big fruity yeast flavors of banana, apple and clove. After taste has a Belgian Ale like quality to it and a warm feel. Overall I like it, its bold and yeasty with sweet Belgian taste. brenn79 (210), Idaho, USA

| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Aug 30, 2009 1 qt, 1.8 oz swingtop bottle. 2009 vintage. Smells Belgian or like a really great German wheat beer, but comes from Idaho! I taste a conglomeration of spices, though this beer adheres to the German Purity Law of 1516, containing only hops, malted barley, water, and yeast. There are so many different flavors in this complex beer, it’s hard to believe it only contains those four ingredients. Excellent!
