Commercial Description:
Welcome Spring! Rich aromas of bananas and cloves melt into a robust caramel maltiness and a zesty, complex finish. It's Ohhhhhhhhh-tay!

This beer had aromoas of spice and fruit. The fruit leant more to the tree ripe banana flavor and the spices seemed to lean towards the allspice type. The same flavors with a heavy wheat feel made its way through the mouthfeel and finish.

Wheat, chocolate, caramel malt (H); clove and banana aroma. Deep hazy brown body. Heavily sweet flavor becomes a heavily sweet, lightly acidic finish. Medium body, oily texture, lively carbonation. The bottom line is: pretty simple, but very clean and well built.

The beer was mild, and mostly malty. The bananas they claim are definetly there, but I don't find them that complimenting. Decent beer to have with the meal.

On tap at Union Sqaure. BANANAS! Very strong bananas in the aroma and in the taste. It smelled like banana bread and it ended up tasting kind of like what I imagine banana flavored cough syrup would be. It has a minimal taste to it and then bam it hits all at once and ends up with almost a scotch aftertaste. Very chewy mouthfeel. Poured a red semi oapque orange.
