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!

Aug 9, 2009 I thought this was absolutely one of the more fantastic example of the style that I have tried in years. The nose is strongly reminiscent of the same yeasty qualities that you get from a traditional hefeweizen, lots of cloves and banana, but than you get a second aroma of sweet candy sugars and caramel maltiness. Very warming on the palate with lots of sweet candied fruits and bubblegum, very full and filling, not a single tastebuds goes unoccupied with pleasure while drinking this one. In a blind testing one would never be able to tell this was an American Beer. Extremely well done.

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a very large beige head that slowly fades. Taste is of fruit, banana, raisin, wheat, yeast and spice. Similar aroma. Very easy to drink. The alcohol is hidden well. A very nice beer and is rather enjoyable to drink. Worth picking up again.

Jul 5, 2009 From a large swing top bottle, 2009 version. The body was dark amber with haze. Topped with a light khaki colored head. The aroma was bubblegum with some bread crust. Deeply funky and yeasty in the nose. The taste was bubblegum with some yeast notes coming through strong. There was bread crust and wood. A little bit of hay and even hints of smoke. Solidly made, but not worth the price.

Jul 3, 2009 I guess I like this more than others well here we go.......The aroma contains some bananas, caramel, cloves, and bready notes. The flavor contains some grapes, caramel, wheat, lemons, bananas and a hint of booze. The finish is on the sour side. I thought this was a nice beer!
