| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 19, 2008 Served on draught at the Wisconsin Micro-brewers Beerfest in Chilton, Wisconsin. Pours a semi-hazy light golden brew with a thin white head that slowly dissipates to a fine film and white ring. Aroma of light golden grain malt, some yeast, banana esters, cloves and a touch of lemon zest. Taste is light to medium bodied, some carbonation with flavors of golden grain malt with wheat, some banana esters, a touch of cloves with lemon and citrus zest. Finish has a good balance of sweet and dry aftertaste flavors that slowly disappears to a crisp finish. esjaygee (1581), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA

Aroma of lightly sweet wheat with a mild lemon citrus presence and some clove and German yeast. Body starts with nice bready fullness and wheaty sweetness well-balanced with a touch of peppery clove and citrus before a smooth, yet flavorful finish.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 4, 2007 Sampled at the Great Dane - Madison Airport. Served (without asking if it’s OK) with a fruit wedge. Sigh... Pours the cloudiest beer I have ever laid eyes upon. So cloudy and murky and thick...yet still exhibits remarkable brightness and sunshiney character. Illuminated from within with a 100-watt bulb. A luminescent golden orange color with a fluffy head of off-white. Aromas are sweet and fruity; lemons, oranges, wheaty. Mild banana and little clove. Yeastiness is solid but not overbearing. Flavors mirror the aromas with the same attributes. The large 20-ounce went down quickly before my meal ever arrived. I was shocked how this beer was dispatched down my gullet. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA
